GENERAL
LOAN TERMS
Section
2.1Β The
Loan. Lender
is making a loan (the "Loan")
to
Borrower on the date
hereof, in the original principal amount (theΒ "Principal")
of
$75,540,000.00 which shall mature
on the Stated Maturity Date. Borrower acknowledges receipt of the Loan, the
proceeds of which are being and shall be used to (i) acquire the Property, (ii)
fund certain of the Subaccounts, and (iii) pay transaction costs. Any excess
proceeds may be used for any lawful purpose. No amount repaid in respect of the
Loan may be reborrowed.
Section
2.2Β Interest;
Monthly Payments.
2.2.1
Generally. From and
after the date hereof, interest on the unpaid Principal shall accrue at the
Interest Rate and be payable as hereinafter provided. On the date hereof,
Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid Principal from the date hereof through
and including April 5, 2005. On May 6, 2005 and each Payment Date thereafter
through and including the
Β
21
Β
Maturity
Date, the interest on the Principal at the Interest Rate shall be payable in
monthly installments (each such installment, the "Monthly
Debt Service Payment Amount"). The
Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount due on any Payment Date shall be applied to
the payment of interest accrued during the preceding Interest Period. All
accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date. If
the Loan is repaid on any date other than on a Payment Date (whether prior to or
after the Stated Maturity Date), Borrower shall also pay interest that would
have accrued on such repaid Principal to but not including the next Payment
Date.
2.2.2
Default
Rate. After
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the entire
unpaid Debt shall bear interest at the Default Rate, and shall be payable,
to the extent permitted by applicable law, within ten (10) days after the date
Lender makes
written demand therefor.
2.2.3
Taxes. Any and
all payments by Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be
made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future
taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities
with respect thereto, excluding taxes imposed on Lender's income, and franchise
and other similar taxes imposed on Lender by the law or regulation of any
Governmental Authority (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts,
deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to
in this Section 2.2.3 as "Applicable
Taxes"). If
Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Applicable Taxes from or in
respect of any sum payable hereunder to Lender, the following shall apply: (i)
the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all
required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable
under this Section 2.2.3), Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would
have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such
deductions and (iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant
taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.
Payments pursuant to this Section 2.2.3 shall be made within ten (10) days after
the date Lender makes written demand therefor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
the Loan is transferred to a transferee which is organized under the laws of any
jurisdiction other than the United States of America or any state thereof, the
transferor shall cause such transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of
such transfer, to furnish to the transferor and Borrower either a United States
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, United States Internal Revenue Service
Form W-8ECI or United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (wherein such
transferee claims entitlement to complete exemption from United States federal
withholding tax on all interest payments hereunder); provided, however, that in
the event that the transferor fails to cause the transferee to furnish either
such Form, Borrower shall deduct any Applicable Taxes to the extent required by
law and payments shall be made net of any Applicable Taxes without regard to the
provisions of clause (i) of the second sentence of this Section
2.2.3.
2.2.4
New
Payment Date. Lender
shall have the right, to be exercised not more than once during the term of the
Loan, to change the Payment Date to a date later than the sixth day of each
month (a "New Payment
Date"), on 30
days' written notice to Borrower; provided,Β however, that any
such change in the Payment Date: (i) shall not modify the amount of regularly
scheduled monthly principal (if any) and interest payments, except that the
first payment of principal (if any) and interest payable on the New Payment Date
shall be accompanied by
Β
22
Β
interest
at the interest rate herein provided for the period from the Payment Date in the
month in which
the New Payment Date first occurs to the New Payment Date, and (ii) shall extend
the Stated
Maturity Date to the New Payment Date occurring in the month set forth in the
definition of
Stated Maturity Date.
Section
2.3 Loan
Repayment.
2.3.1
Repayment. Borrower
shall repay the entire outstanding principal balance of the Notes in full on the
Maturity Date, together with interest thereon to (but excluding) the date of
repayment and any other amounts due and owing under the Loan Documents. Borrower
shall have no right to prepay or defease all or any portion of the Principal
except in accordance with Section 2.3.2, Section 2.3.3 and Section 2.4 below.
Except during the continuance of an Event of
Default, all proceeds of any repayment, including any prepayments of the Loan,
shall be applied
by Lender as follows in the following order of priority: First,
accrued
and unpaid interest at the Interest Rate; second,
to
Principal; and third,
to and
any other amounts then due and owing under the Loan Documents; provided,
however, as between the allocation of the foregoing application of payments
between Note A and Note B, such allocation shall be made by Lender in such
manner as Lender shall elect in Lender's discretion.. If prior to the Stated
Maturity Date the Debt is accelerated by reason of an Event of Default, then
Lender shall be entitled to receive, in addition to the unpaid Principal and
accrued interest and other sums due under the Loan Documents, an amount equal to
the Yield Maintenance Premium applicable to such Principal so accelerated.
During the continuance of an Event of Default, all proceeds of repayment,
including any payment or recovery on the Property (whether through foreclosure,
deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise) shall, unless otherwise provided in
the Loan Documents, be applied in such order and in such manner as Lender shall
elect in Lender's discretion.
2.3.2
Mandatory
Prepayments. The Loan
is subject to mandatory prepayment in certain instances of Insured Casualty or
Condemnation (each, a "Casualty/Condemnation
Prepayment"), in the
manner and to the extent set forth in Section 7.4.2. Each Casualty/Condemnation
Prepayment, after deducting Lender's costs and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses) in connection with the settlement or collection of
the Proceeds or Award, shall be applied in the same manner as repayments under
Section 2.3.1, and if such Casualty/Condemnation Payment is made on any date
other than a Payment Date, then such Casualty/Condemnation Payment shall include
interest that would have accrued on the Principal prepaid to but not including
the next Payment Date. Provided that no Event of Default is continuing, any such
mandatory prepayment under this Section 2.3.2 shall be without the payment of
the Yield Maintenance Premium. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, each Casualty/Condemnation Prepayment shall be applied in
inverse order of maturity
and shall not extend or postpone the due dates of the monthly installments due
under the Note or
this Agreement, or change the amounts of such installments.
2.3.3
Defeasance
(a)Β Conditions
to Defeasance. Provided
no Event of Default shall be continuing,
Borrower shall have the right on any Payment Date after the Lockout Release
Date and
prior to the Permitted Prepayment Date to voluntarily defease the entire amount
of the
Β
23
Β
Principal
and obtain a release of the Lien of the Mortgage and a release of Borrower's and
Guarantor's obligations under the other Loan Documents and the Master Lease
(other than (i) those
obligations which are expressly stated to survive the payment in full of the
Loan and (ii) the
Security Agreement) by providing Lender with the Defeasance Collateral
(a
"Defeasance
Event"), subject
to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent:
(1)Β Β Borrower
shall give Lender not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice
specifying a Payment Date (theΒ "Defeasance
Date") on which
the Defeasance Event is expected
to occur.
(2)Β Β Borrower
shall pay to Lender (A) all payments of interest due on the Loan to and
including the Defeasance Date and (B) all other sums, then due under the Notes,
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;
(3)Β Β Borrower
shall deposit the Defeasance Collateral into the Defeasance Collateral
Account and otherwise comply with the provisions of subsections (b) and (c) of
this Section
2.3.3;
(4)Β Β Borrower
shall execute and deliver to Lender a Security Agreement in respect of the
Defeasance Collateral Account and the Defeasance Collateral;
(5)Β Β Borrower
shall deliver to Lender an opinion of counsel for Borrower that is standard in
commercial lending transactions and subject only to customary qualifications,
assumptions and exceptions opining to the effect that, among other things, that
(i) Lender has a legal and valid perfected security interest in the Defeasance
Collateral Account and the Defeasance Collateral, (ii) if a securitization has
occurred, the REMIC Trust formed pursuant to such securitization will not fail
to maintain its status as a "real estate mortgage investment conduit" within the
meaning of Section 860D of the Code solely as a result of a Defeasance Event
pursuant to this Section 2.3.3, (iii) the Defeasance Event will not result in a
significant modification and will not be an exchange of the Note for purposes of
Section 1001 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, (iv) delivery
of the Defeasance Collateral and the grant of a security interest therein to
Lender shall not constitute an avoidable preference under Section 547 of the
Bankruptcy Code or applicable state law and (v) a non-consolidation opinion with
respect to the Successor Borrower (if any);
(6)Β Β Borrower
shall deliver to Lender and the Rating Agencies a Rating Comfort Letter as to
the Defeasance Event;
(7)Β Β Borrower
shall deliver an Officer's Certificate certifying that the requirements set
forth in this Section 2.3.3 have been satisfied;
(8)Β Β Borrower
shall deliver an agreed upon procedures letter from a "big four" or other
nationally recognized public accounting firm that would be acceptable to a
prudent lender (or any other accounting firm that is reputable and experienced
in preparing such procedure letters and reports and would be reasonably
acceptable to a prudent lender) verifying that the Defeasance Collateral will
generate monthly amounts equal to or greater than the Scheduled Defeasance
Payments, (ii) the revenue from the Defeasance Collateral will be applied within
four months of receipt towards payments of Debt Service, (iii) the securities
that comprise
Β
24
Β
the
Defeasance Collateral are not subject to prepayment, call or early redemption
and (iv) the interest
income to Borrower (or the Successor Borrower, if applicable) from the
Defeasance Collateral will not in any tax year materially exceed the interest
expense associated with the defeased Loan;
Β
(9)Β Β Borrower
shall deliver such other certificates, opinions, documents and instruments as a
prudent lender may reasonably request; and
Β
(10)Β Β Borrower
shall pay all costs and expenses of Lender incurred in connection with the
Defeasance Event, including Lender's reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses and
Rating Agency fees and expenses.
Β
(b)Β Β Defeasance
Collateral Account. On or
before the date on which Borrower delivers the Defeasance Collateral, Borrower
shall open at any Eligible Institution the defeasance collateral account (the
"Defeasance
Collateral Account") which
shall at all times be an Eligible Account. The Defeasance Collateral Account
shall contain only (i) Defeasance Collateral, and (ii) cash from interest and
principal paid on the Defeasance Collateral. All cash from interest and
principal payments paid on the Defeasance Collateral shall be paid over to
Lender on each Payment Date and applied first to accrued and unpaid interest and
then to Principal. Any cash from interest and principal paid on the Defeasance
Collateral not needed to pay accrued and unpaid interest or Principal shall be
retained in the Defeasance Collateral Account as additional collateral for the
Loan. Borrower shall cause the Eligible Institution at which the Defeasance
Collateral is deposited to enter an agreement with Borrower and Lender,
satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion, pursuant to which such Eligible
Institution shall agree to hold and distribute the Defeasance Collateral in
accordance with this Agreement. The Borrower or the Successor Borrower shall be
the owner of the Defeasance Collateral Account and shall report all income
accrued on Defeasance Collateral for federal, state and local income tax
purposes in its income tax return to the extent required by law. Borrower shall
pay all costs and expenses associated with opening and maintaining the
Defeasance Collateral Account. Neither Borrower (provided that a Successor
Borrower has assumed the Loan) nor Lender shall in any way be liable by reason
of any insufficiency in the Defeasance Collateral Account.
Β
(c)Β Β Successor
Borrower. In
connection with a Defeasance Event under this Section 2.3.3, Borrower shall, if
required by the Rating Agencies or if Borrower elect to do so, establish or
designate a successor entity (the "Successor
Borrower") which
shall be a Single Purpose Bankruptcy Remote Entity and which shall be approved
by the Rating Agencies. Any such Successor Borrower may, at Borrower's option,
be an Affiliate of Borrower unless the Rating Agencies shall require otherwise.
Borrower shall transfer and assign all obligations, rights and duties under and
to the Note, together with the Defeasance Collateral to such Successor Borrower.
Such Successor Borrower shall assume the obligations under the Note and the
Security Agreement and Borrower shall be relieved of its obligations under the
Debt and the Loan
Documents (other than those obligations which are expressly stated to survive
the payment in full
of the Loan). Borrower shall pay a minimum of $1,000 to any such Successor
Borrower as
consideration for assuming the obligations under the Note and the Security
Agreement (unless such
requirement shall be waived by the applicable Rating Agencies). Borrower shall
pay all costs and expenses incurred by Lender, including Lender's attorney's
fees and expenses, incurred in connection therewith.
Β
25
Β
2.3.4
Optional
Prepayments. From and
after the third Payment Date prior to the Stated Maturity Date (the "Permitted
Prepayment Date"), Borrower
shall have the right to prepay the Principal in whole but not in part, provided
that Borrower gives Lender at least 15 days' prior written notice thereof. If
any such prepayment is not made on a Payment Date, Borrower shall also pay
interest that would have accrued on such prepaid Principal to, but not
including, the next Payment Date. Any such prepayment shall be made without
payment of the Yield Maintenance Premium.
Β
2.3.5
Prepayments
After Default. If after
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, payment of all
or any part of the principal of the Loan is tendered by Borrower, a purchaser at
foreclosure or any other Person, such tender shall be deemed an
attempt to circumvent the prohibition against prepayment set forth in Section
2.3.1 and
Borrower, such purchaser at foreclosure or other Person shall pay the Yield
Maintenance Premium, in addition to the outstanding principal balance, all
accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts payable under the Loan
Documents.
Section
2.4Β Release
of Property.
2.4.1
Release
on Defeasance. If
Borrower has elected to defease the Notes and the requirements of Section 2.3.3
and this Section 2.4 have been satisfied, the Property shall be released from
the Lien of the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents, and the Defeasance
Collateral pledged pursuant to the Security Agreement shall be the sole source
of collateral securing the Notes. In connection with the release of the Lien,
Borrower shall submit to Lender, not less
than fifteen (15) days prior to the Defeasance Date (or such shorter time as is
acceptable to
Lender in its sole discretion), release of Lien (and related Loan Documents) for
execution by Lender. Such release shall be in a form appropriate in the
jurisdiction in which the Property is located. In addition, Borrower shall
provide all other documentation as a prudent lender would reasonably
require to be delivered by Borrower in connection with such release, together
with an
Officer's Certificate certifying that such documentation (i) is in compliance
with all Legal Requirements, and (ii) will effect such release in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement. Borrower shall pay all costs, taxes and
expenses associated with the release of the Lien of the Mortgage and the other
Loan Documents, including Lender's reasonable attorneys' fees.
2.4.2
Release
on Payment in Full. Lender
shall, upon the written request and at the expense of Borrower, upon payment in
full of the Debt in accordance herewith, release or, if requested by Borrower,
assign to Borrower's
designee (without any representation or warranty by and without any recourse
against Lender whatsoever), the Lien of the Loan Documents if not theretofore
released.
Section
2.5 Payments
and Computations.
2.5.1
Making
of Payments. Each
payment by Borrower shall be made in funds settled through the New York Clearing
House Interbank Payments System or other funds immediately
available to Lender by 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date such payment
is due, to
Lender by deposit to such account as Lender may designate by written notice to
Borrower. Whenever any such payment shall be stated to be due on a day that is
not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the first Business Day
thereafter. All such payments shall
Β
26
Β
be made
irrespective of, and without any deduction, set-off or counterclaim whatsoever
and are payable
without relief from valuation and appraisement laws and with all costs and
charges incurred in the collection or enforcement thereof, including attorneys'
fees and court costs.
2.5.2
Computations. Interest
payable under the Loan Documents shall be computed on the basis of the actual
number of days elapsed over a 360-day year.
2.5.3
Late
Payment Charge. If any
Principal, interest or other sum due under any Loan Document is not paid by
Borrower on the date on which it is due, Borrower shall pay to Lender (within
ten (10) days after the date Lender makes written demand therefor) an amount
equal to the lesser of 5% of such unpaid sum or the maximum amount permitted by
applicable law (the "Late Payment Charge"), in order to defray the expense
incurred by Lender in handling and
processing such delinquent payment and to compensate Lender for the loss of the
use of such
delinquent payment. Such amount shall be secured by the Loan
Documents.
Section
2.6Β Intentionally
Omitted. ARTICLE
3
CASH
MANAGEMENT
AND RESERVES
Section
3.1Β Cash
Management Arrangements. Within
five (5) Business Days of the date hereof, Borrower shall deliver direction
letters to the non-residential tenants of the Property directing such tenants to
pay all Rents directly into an Eligible Account (the "Clearing
Account")
maintained
by Borrower at a local bank selected by Borrower, which shall at all
timesΒ be an
Eligible Institution (theΒ "Clearing
Bank") as more
fully described in the Clearing Account
Agreement. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, all Rents received by
Borrower or Manager shall be deposited into the Clearing Account within one
Business Day of receipt. Funds deposited into the Clearing Account shall be
swept by the Clearing Bank on a daily basis into the
Borrower's operating account at the Clearing Bank, unlessΒ a
Cash
Management Period is
continuing, in which event such funds shall be swept on a daily basis into an
Eligible Account at the Deposit Bank controlled by Lender (the "Deposit
Account") and
applied and disbursed in accordance with this Agreement. Funds in the Deposit
Account shall be invested at Lender's discretion only in Permitted Investments.
Lender will also establish subaccounts of the Deposit Account
which shall at all times be Eligible Accounts (and may be ledger or book entry
accounts and not
actual accounts) (such subaccounts are referred to herein as "Subaccounts").
The
Deposit
Account and any Subaccount will be under the sole control and dominion of
Lender, and Borrower
shall have no right of withdrawal therefrom. Borrower shall pay for all expenses
of opening and maintaining all of the above accounts.
Section
3.2Β Intentionally
Omitted.
Section
3.3 Taxes
and Insurance. Borrower
shall pay to Lender on each Payment Date, one-twelfth of the Taxes that Lender
estimates will be payable during the next ensuing
twelve (12) months in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay
all such Taxes at
least thirty (30) days prior to their Delinquency Date, and (A) on the date
hereof, an amount equal to $74,980 (the "Initial
Blanket Insurance Premium Installment") and
Β
27
Β
(B) (1)
for so long as the applicable Blanket Insurance Premium Financing Arrangement
remains in full
force and effect, on each Payment Date, the Financing Installment for the next
occurring payment under the applicable Blanket Insurance Premium Financing
Arrangement and/or (2) with respect to any Insurance Premiums not covered by a
Blanket Insurance Premium Financing Arrangement, on each Payment Date,
one-twelfth of the Insurance Premiums that Lender estimates will be payable for
the renewal of the coverage afforded by the Policies upon the expiration thereof
in order to accumulate with Lender sufficient funds to pay all such Insurance
Premiums at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Policies (said
amounts in (i) and (ii) above hereinafter called the "Tax and
Insurance Impound Fund"). Such
amounts
will be transferred by Lender to a Subaccount (theΒ "Tax and
Insurance Subaccount"). Lender
will apply the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund to payments of Taxes and Insurance
Premiums required to be made by Borrower pursuant to Sections 5.2 and 7.1 hereof
and/or to payments due to the applicable finance company under the applicable
Blanket Insurance Premium Financing Arrangement, as applicable. In making any
payment relating to the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund, Lender may do so
according to any xxxx, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate
public office (with respect to Taxes) or insurer or agent (with respect to
Insurance Premiums), without inquiry into the accuracy of such xxxx, statement
or estimate or into the validity of any tax, assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax
lien or title or claim thereof. If the amount of the Tax and Insurance Impound
Fund shall exceed the amounts due for Taxes and Insurance Premiums pursuant to
Sections 5.2 and 7.1 hereof, Lender shall, in its sole discretion, return any
excess to Borrower or credit such excess against future payments to be made to
the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund. In allocating such excess, Lender may deal
with the person shown on the records of Lender to be the owner of the Property.
If at any time Lender determines that the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund is not
or will not be sufficient to pay the items set forth in (i) and (ii) above,
Lender shall notify Borrower of such determination and Borrower shall increase
its monthly payments to Lender by the amount that Lender estimates is sufficient
to make up the deficiency at least thirty (30) days prior to delinquency of the
Taxes and/or expiration of the Policies, as the case may be. All earnings of
interest on the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund shall become part of the Tax and
Insurance Impound Fund and shall be disbursed in accordance with this Section
3.3. If Lender so elects at any time, Borrower shall provide, at Borrower's
expense, a tax service contract for the Term issued by a tax reporting agency
acceptable to Lender. If Lender does not so elect, Borrower shall reimburse
Lender for the cost of making annual tax searches throughout the
Term.
Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.3, with respect to the
Initial Blanket
Insurance Premium Deposit, and the required monthly payments required under
clause (ii) above through the end of the current policy year, the parties agree
as follows: For the period from the
date hereof through August 1, 2005, the Property will be covered by a blanket
insurance policy
as described in Section 7.1.4, but instead of participating in the Blanket
Insurance Premium Financing Arrangement, Borrower will pay its allocable share
of the Insurance Premiums in a single installment, due approximately 30 days
after the date hereof. Borrower's allocable share of the annual Insurance
Premiums for the blanket policy for the period from the date hereof through
August 1, 2005 is the Initial Blanket Insurance Premium Deposit. Borrower has
deposited the Initial Blanket Insurance Premium Deposit in the Tax and Insurance
Impound Fund on the date hereof (as set forth in clause (ii)(A) in the
immediately preceding paragraph); Borrower will notify Lender in writing at
least ten (10) days in advance of the date when such Insurance Premium is due,
whereupon Lender will apply such amount to the payment of
Β
28
Β
Borrower's
allocable share of the blanket policy Insurance Premium. On the Payment Dates in
May, June and July of 2005, Borrower will pay to Lender for deposit in the Tax
and Insurance Impound Fund the sum of $18,745.00 per month. On each Payment Date
commencing with the Payment Date occurring in August, 2005, Borrower shall make
payments into the Tax and Insurance Impound Fund as set forth in the preceding
paragraph.
Section
3.4Β Rollover
Reserve/Rent Credit Subaccounts.Β Rollover
Reserve. Borrower
shall pay to Lender $2,160,000 on the date hereof, and Lender will transfer such
amount into a Subaccount (the "Rollover
Reserve Subaccount"). Borrower
shall also pay to Lender for transfer into the Rollover Reserve Subaccount all
Lease Termination Payments received by Borrower with respect to Material Leases;
provided,
however,
once Borrower has provided to Lender evidence reasonably acceptable to Lender
that the space under the Lease that was the subject of such Lease Termination
Payment has been re-tenanted and all Approved Leasing Expenses in connection
with such space have been paid, Lender shall (provided no Event of Default is
then continuing) disburse to Borrower any remaining portion of the subject Lease
Termination Payment. Provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, Lender shall disburse funds held in the Rollover Reserve Subaccount
to Borrower, within fifteen (15) days after the delivery by Borrower to Lender
of a request therefor (but not more often than once per month), in increments of
at least $5,000, provided (i) such disbursement is for an Approved Leasing
Expense; (ii) with respect to disbursements in excess of $100,000, Lender shall
have (if it desires) verified (by an inspection conducted at Borrower's expense)
performance of any construction work associated with such Approved Leasing
Expense; and (iii) the request for disbursement is accompanied by (A) an
Officer's Certificate certifying (1) that such funds will be used only to pay
(or reimburse Borrower for) Approved Leasing Expenses and a description thereof,
(2) that all outstanding trade payables (other than those to be paid from the
requested disbursement or those constituting Permitted Indebtedness) have been
paid in full, (3) that the same has not been the subject of a previous
disbursement, and (4) that all previous disbursements have been used only to pay
(or reimburse Borrower for) the previously identified Approved Leasing Expenses,
and (B) reasonably detailed supporting documentation as to the amount, necessity
and purpose therefor. Any such disbursement of more than $100,000 to pay (rather
than reimburse) Approved Leasing Expenses may, at Lender's option, be made by
joint check payable to Borrower and the payee of such Approved Leasing Expenses.
Without limiting the provisions of this Section 3.4.1, Borrower agrees that it
will pay for those tenant improvement allowances set forth in Schedule
7 attached
hereto within the time period required for the same, and Borrower shall be
entitled to draw funds from the Rollover Reserve Subaccount for payment of the
same (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section
3.4.1).
3.4.1
Rent
Holdback Reserve. Borrower
shall pay to Lender $625,168 on the date hereof, and Lender will transfer such
amount into a Subaccount (the "Rent
Holdback Subaccount"). Funds in
the Rent Holdback Subaccount shall be allocated to simulate the full unabated
base rent payments for the Leases identified on Schedule
6 attached
hereto (i.e., the difference between the amount of rent currently being paid
under such Leases, and the full unabated amount of rent payable pursuant to the
terms of such Leases, after the expiration of all rent abatement periods set
forth in such Leases), as more particularly set forth on Schedule
6 with
respect to the breakdown and specific allocation of monthly rent holdback funds
allocated for each such Lease. Provided no Event of Default is continuing, on
each Payment Date set forth
Β
29
Β
on
Schedule
6, Lender
shall disburse funds held in the Rent Holdback Subaccount (in the amounts set
forth on Schedule
6 with
respect to each such Payment Date) (x) if no Cash Management Period is then
continuing, directly into the Clearing Account and (y) if a Cash Management
Period is then continuing, directly into the Deposit Account (i.e., at the "top
of the waterfall"), and shall be applied in accordance with the priority of
payments set forth in Section 3.9(a) (i.e., in the same manner as Rents that are
deposited into the Deposit Account on each Payment Date during the continuance
of a Cash Management Period).
Section
3.5Β Casualty/Condenmation
Subaccount. Borrower
shall pay, or cause to be paid, to Lender all Proceeds or Awards due to any
Casualty or Condemnation to be transferred to a Subaccount (the "Casualty/Condemnation
Subaccount") in
accordance with the provisions of Article 7. All amounts in the
Casualty/Condemnation Subaccount shall be disbursed in accordance with the
provisions of Article 7.
Section
3.6Β Security
Deposits. Borrower
shall keep all security deposits actually paid to Borrower under Leases at a
separately designated account under Borrower's control at the Clearing Bank (and
in the case of a letter of credit received after the date hereof; assigned with
full power of attorney and executed sight drafts to Lender) so that the security
deposits shall not be commingled with any other funds of Borrower (such account,
the "Security
Deposit Account"). After the
occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, Borrower shall, upon
Lender's request, if permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, turn over to
Lender the security deposits (and any interest theretofore earned thereon) under
Leases, to be held by Lender in
a Subaccount (theΒ "Security
Deposit Subaccount") subject
to the terms of the Leases.Β Security
deposits held in the Security Deposit Subaccount will be released by Lender upon
notice from
Borrower together with such evidence as Lender may reasonably request that such
security deposit is required to be returned to a tenant pursuant to the terms of
a Lease or may be applied as Rent pursuant to the rights of Borrower under the
applicable Lease. Any letter of credit or other instrument that Borrower
receives in lieu of a cash security deposit under any Lease entered into after
the date hereof shall (i) be maintained in full force and effect in the full
amount required by the applicable Lease unless replaced by a cash deposit as
hereinabove described and (ii) if permitted pursuant to any Legal Requirements,
name Lender as payee or mortgagee thereunder (or at Lender's option, be fully
assignable to Lender).
Section
3.7 Cash
Collateral Subaccount. If a
Cash Management Period shall have
commenced, then on the immediately succeeding Payment Date and on each Payment
Date
thereafter during the continuance of such Cash Management Period, all Available
Cash shall be paid to Lender, which amounts shall be transferred by Lender into
a Subaccount (the "Cash
Collateral Subaccount") as cash
collateral for the Debt. Any funds in the Cash Collateral Account and not
previously disbursed or applied shall be disbursed to Borrower upon the
termination of such Cash Management Period. Lender shall have the right, but not
the obligation, at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, in
its sole and absolute discretion to apply all sums then on deposit in the Cash
Collateral Subaccount to the Debt, in such
order and in such manner as Lender shall elect in its sole and absolute
discretion, including to make
a prepayment of Principal (together which the applicable Yield Maintenance
Premium applicable thereto). Additionally, Lender shall have the right, but not
the obligation, at any time subsequent to the second Calculation Date following
the commencement of a DSCR Cash Management Period (whether or not an Event of
Default is then continuing), in its sole and
Β
30
Β
absolute
discretion to apply all sums then on deposit in the Cash Collateral Subaccount
towards a partial Defeasance of the Loan (together with any Defeasance costs
associated therewith), and Borrower shall execute such documents and take such
other actions necessary to satisfy the Defeasance requirements set forth in
Section 2.3.3 hereof (to the extent applicable to a partial involuntary
Defeasance).
Β
Section
3.8Β Grant
of Security Interest; Application of Funds. As
security for payment of the Debt and the performance by Borrower of all other
terms, conditions and provisions of the Loan Documents, Borrower hereby pledges
and assigns to Lender, and grants to Lender a security interest in, all
Borrower's right, title and interest in and to the Clearing Account, the Deposit
Account and all Subaccounts, all Rents and in and to all payments to or monies
held in the Clearing Account, the Deposit Account, and all Subaccounts created
pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, the "Cash
Management Accounts"). Borrower
hereby grants to Lender a continuing security interest in, and agrees to hold in
trust for the benefit of Lender, all Rents in its possession prior to the (i)
payment of such Rents to Lender or (ii) deposit of such Rents into the Deposit
Account until such Rents are released to Borrower from the Clearing Account
pursuant to this Agreement and the Cash Management Agreement. Borrower shall
not, without obtaining the prior written consent of Lender, further pledge,
assign or grant any security interest in any Cash Management Account, or permit
any Lien to attach thereto, or any levy to be made thereon, or any UCC Financing
Statements, except those naming Lender as the secured party, to be filed with
respect thereto. This Agreement is, among other things, intended by the parties
to be a security agreement for purposes of the UCC. Upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender may apply any sums in any
Cash Management Account in any order and in any manner as Lender shall elect in
Lender's discretion without seeking the appointment of a receiver and without
adversely affecting the rights of Lender to foreclose the Lien of the Mortgage
or exercise its other rights under the Loan Documents. Cash Management Accounts
shall not constitute trust funds and may be commingled with other monies held by
Lender. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at the
direction of Borrower, Lender shall deposit the amounts held in the Cash
Management Accounts in Permitted Investments selected by Borrower. All
investment earnings which accrues on the funds in any Cash Management Account
shall accrue for the benefit of Borrower and shall be taxable to Borrower and
shall be added to and disbursed in the same manner and under the same conditions
as the principal sum on which said interest accrued. Lender shall not be
responsible for any losses resulting from the investment of the Funds or for
obtaining any specific level or percentage of earnings on such investment. Upon
repayment in full of the Debt or defeasance of the Loan, all remaining funds in
the Cash Management Accounts, if any, shall be promptly disbursed to
Borrower.
Section
3.9 Property
Cash Flow Allocation. (a)
During any Cash Management Period, all Rents deposited into the Deposit Account
during the immediately preceding Interest Period shall be applied on each
Payment Date as follows in the following order of priority:
(i)Β Β First,
to make
payments into the Tax and Insurance Subaccount as required under
Section.3.3;
(ii)Β Β Second,
to pay
the monthly portion of the fees charged by the Deposit Bank in accordance with
the Cash Management Agreement; (iii) Third,
to Lender
to pay the Monthly Debt Service Payment Amount due on such Payment Date (plus,
if applicable, interest at the Default Rate and all other amounts, other than
those described under other clauses of this Section 3.9(a), then due to Lender
under the Loan Documents); (iv)
Fourth, to
Borrower the monthly amount set forth in
Β
31
Β
the
Approved Budget for the following month as being necessary for payment of
Approved Operating Expenses and Approved Capital Expenses at the Property for
such month, plus the amount
for Budgeted Variances (as defined in the Cash Management
Agreement);Β (v)
Fifth,
after the
consummation of a Securitization, to pay the pro rata portion of the expenses
described in Section 9.1.4; and (vi) Lastly,
to make
payments in an amount equal to all remaining Available Cash on such Payment Date
into the Cash Collateral Subaccount in accordance with Section 3.7.
(b)Β Β The
failure of Borrower to make all of the payments required under clauses (i)
through (vi) of Section 3.9(a) in full on each Payment Date shall constitute an
Event of Default under this Agreement; provided,Β however, if
adequate funds are available in the Deposit Account for such payments, the
failure by the Deposit Bank to allocate such funds into the appropriate
Subaccounts shall not constitute an Event of Default.
(c)Β Β Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.9, after the occurrence and
continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, Lender may apply all Rents
deposited into the Deposit Account and other proceeds of repayment in such order
and in such manner as Lender shall elect.

represents and warrants to Lender as of the date hereof that, except to the
extent (if any) disclosed on Schedule 2 with reference to a specific Section of
this Article 4:
Section
4.1Β Organization;
Special Purpose. Borrower
has been duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the state of its formation, with requisite power and authority, and all
rights, licenses, permits and authorizations, governmental or otherwise,
necessary to own its properties and to transact the business in which it is now
engaged. Borrower is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in
each jurisdiction where it is required to be so qualified in connection with its
properties, business and operations. Borrower is a Special Purpose Bankruptcy
Remote Entity.
Section
4.2Β Authorization;
Valid Execution and Delivery; Enforceability.Β Borrower
has taken all necessary actions for the authorization of the borrowing on
account of the Loan and
for the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, including, without
limitation,
. that
those members of Borrower whose approval is required by the terms of Borrower's
organizational documents have duly approved the transactions contemplated by the
Loan Documents
and have authorized execution and delivery thereof by the respective
signatories. To the best
of Borrower's knowledge, no other consent by any local, state or federal agency
is required in connection with the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents.
All of the Loan Documents requiring execution by Borrower have been duly and
validly executed and delivered by Borrower. All of the Loan Documents constitute
valid, legal and binding obligations of Borrower and are fully enforceable
against Borrower in accordance with their terms by Lender and its successors,
transferees and assigns, subject only to bankruptcy laws, and general principles
of equity, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium, receivership or
other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors. All
consents, approvals,
Β
32
Β
authorizations,
orders or filings with any court or governmental agency or body, if any,
required for the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents by
Borrower have been obtained or made.
Section
4.3 No
Conflict/Violation of Law. The
execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents by Borrower will not
cause or constitute a default under or conflict
with the organizational documents of Borrower, any Guarantor or any general
partner or managing
member of Borrower or any Guarantor. The execution, delivery and performance of
the obligations imposed on Borrower under the Loan Documents will not cause
Borrower to be in default, including after due notice or lapse of time or both,
under the provisions of any agreement, judgment or order to which Borrower is a
party or by which Borrower is bound.
Section
4.4 No
Litigation. Except
as otherwise disclosed on Schedule 2, to the best of Borrower's knowledge there
are no pending actions, suits or proceedings, arbitrations or governmental
investigations against the Property, an adverse outcome of which would
materially affect Borrower's performance under the Note, this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents.
Section
4.5 No
Defenses. The
Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage and the other Loan Documents are not subject
to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, nor would the
operation of any of the terms of the Note, this Agreement, the Mortgage or any
of the other Loan Documents, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render
this Agreement or the Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to
any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense
of usury.
Section
4.6Β Title. Borrower
has good and marketable fee simple title to the Property constituting real
property (other than the beneficial interests), and good title to the
Equipment,
subject to no liens, charges or encumbrances other than the Permitted
Encumbrances and
liens, charges or encumbrances otherwise expressly permitted by the Loan
Documents. The possession of the Property has been peaceful and undisturbed and
title thereto has not been disputed or questioned to the best of Borrower's
knowledge. The Permitted Encumbrances do not and will not materially and
adversely affect (1) the ability of Borrower to pay in full the principal and
interest on the Note in a timely manner or (2) the use of the Property for the
use currently being made thereof, the operation of the Property as currently
being operated or the value of the Property. Upon the execution by Borrower and
the recording of the Mortgage, and upon the filing of UCC-1 financing statements
or amendments thereto, the Lender will have a valid first lien on the Property
and a valid security interest in the Equipment subject to no liens, charges or
encumbrances other than the Permitted Encumbrances and liens, charges or
encumbrances otherwise expressly permitted by the Loan Documents.
Section
4.7 No
Insolvency or Judgment; No Bankruptcy Filing. Neither
Borrower, nor any general partner or member of Borrower, nor any Guarantor of
the Loan is currently (a) the subject of or a party to any completed or pending
bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceeding; or (b) the subject of any
judgment unsatisfied of record or docketed in any court of the state in which
the Property is located or in any other court located in the United States. The
Loan will not render Borrower nor any general partner or member of Borrower
insolvent. As used herein, the term "insolvent"
means
that the sum total of all of an entity's liabilities (whether secured or
unsecured, contingent or fixed, or liquidated or unliquidated) is
in
Β
33
Β
excess of
the value of all such entity's non-exempt assets, i.e., all of the assets of the
entity that are available to satisfy claims of creditors. Borrower is not
contemplating either the filing of a petition by it under any state or federal
bankruptcy or insolvency law or the liquidation of all or a major portion of its
property (a "Bankruptcy
Proceeding"), and
Borrower has no knowledge of any Person contemplating the filing of any such
petition against it. In addition, except as described on Schedule
2 attached
hereto, neither Borrower nor any principal nor Affiliate of Borrower has been a
party to, or the subject of a Bankruptcy Proceeding for the past ten
years.
Section
4.8 Misstatements
of Fact. No
statement of fact made in the Loan Documents contains any untrue statement of a
material fact or omits to state any material fact known to
Borrower or its Affiliates necessary to make statements contained herein or
therein not
misleading. There is no fact presently known to Borrower which has not been
disclosed which materially adversely affects, nor as far as Borrower can
reasonably foresee, might materially adversely affect the business, operations
or condition (financial or otherwise) of Borrower.
Section
4.9Β Tax
Filings. To the
extent required, Borrower has filed (or has obtained
effective extensions for filing) all federal, state and local tax returns
required to be filed and,
except as otherwise disclosed to Lender in writing, has paid or made adequate
provision for the payment of all federal, state and local taxes, charges and
assessments payable by Borrower pursuant to such returns or any notice of
assessment received by Borrower. Borrower believes that its tax returns (if any)
properly reflect the income and taxes of Borrower for the periods covered
thereby, subject only to reasonable adjustments required by the Internal Revenue
Service or other applicable tax authority upon audit. Borrower does not have any
knowledge of any basis for additional assessment with respect to such taxes
other than a possible reassessment of the Property for real estate tax purposes
resulting from transactions occurring in connection with the acquisition of the
Property on or prior to the date hereof.
Section
4.10 ERISA. As of
the date hereof and throughout the Term (i) Borrower is not and will not be an
"employee benefit plan," as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA, which is subject
to Title I of ERISA, (ii) none of the assets of Borrower constitutes or will
constitute "plan assets" of one or more such plans within the meaning of 29

plan" within the meaning of Section 3(32) of ERISA, and (iv) transactions by or
with Borrower are not and will not be subject to state statutes regulating

the meaning of Section 3(37)(A) of ERISA).
Section
4.11 Compliance
with Applicable Laws and Regulations. To the
Borrower's knowledge, except as set forth in the engineering reports obtained
and submitted to Lender in
connection with the Loan, all of the Improvements and the use of the Property
comply in all
material respects with, and shall remain in compliance in all material respects
with, all applicable statutes, rules, regulations and private covenants now or
hereafter relating to the ownership, construction, use or operation of the
Property, including all applicable Prescribed Laws and all applicable statutes,
rules and regulations pertaining to requirements for equal
Β
34
Β
opportunity,
anti-discrimination, fair housing, environmental protection, zoning and land use
and the Improvements comply in all material respects with, and shall remain in
compliance in all material respects with, applicable health, fire and building
codes. Borrower is not aware of any illegal activities relating to controlled
substances on the Property. To Borrower's knowledge, all certifications,
permits, licenses and approvals, including, without limitation, certificates of
completion and occupancy permits required for the legal use, occupancy and
operation of the Property as an office building (collectively, the "Licenses"),
have been
obtained and are in full force and effect. To the Borrower's knowledge, all of
the Improvements comply with all material requirements of any applicable zoning
and subdivision laws and ordinances. To Borrower's knowledge, in the event that
all or any part of the Improvements are destroyed or damaged, said Improvements
can be legally reconstructed to their condition prior to such damage or
destruction, and thereafter exist for the same use without violating any zoning
or other ordinances applicable thereto and without the necessity of obtaining
any variances or special permits. No legal proceedings are pending or, to the
knowledge of Borrower, threatened with respect to the zoning of the Property. To
the Borrower's knowledge, neither the zoning nor any other right to construct,
use or operate the Property is in any way dependent upon or related to any
property other than the Property. The use being made of the Property is in
conformity with the certificate of occupancy issued for the Property and, to the
Borrower's knowledge, all other restrictions, covenants and conditions affecting
the Property.
Section
4.12 Contracts. Except
as set forth on Schedule 2, to the Borrower's knowledge there are no service,
maintenance or repair contracts affecting the Property that are not terminable
on one month's notice or less without cause and without penalty or premium. All
service,
maintenance or repair contracts affecting the Property entered into by the
Borrower have been
entered into at arms-length in the ordinary course of Borrower's business and
provide for the payment of fees in amounts and upon terms comparable to existing
market rates.
Section
4.13 Federal
Reserve Regulations; Investment Company Act. No part
of the proceeds of the Loan will be used for the purpose of purchasing or
acquiring any "margin stock" within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System or for any other purpose that would be
inconsistent with such Regulation U or any other regulation of such Board of
Governors, or for any purpose prohibited by Legal Requirements or any Loan
Document. Borrower is not (i) an "investment company" or a company "controlled"
by an "investment company," within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended; (ii) a "holding company" or a "subsidiary company" of a
"holding company" or an "affiliate" of either a "holding company" or a
"subsidiary company" within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company
Act of 1935, as amended; or (iii) subject to any other federal or state law or
regulation which purports to restrict or regulate its ability to borrow
money.
Section
4.14 Access/Utilities. To
Borrower's best knowledge, the Property has adequate rights of access to public
ways and is served by adequate water, sewer, sanitary sewer and storm drain
facilities. Other than as disclosed on the Survey (as hereinafter defined), all
public utilities necessary to the continued use and enjoyment of the Property as
presently used and enjoyed are located in the public right-of-way abutting the
Property, and all such utilities are connected so as to serve the Property
without passing over other property. All roads necessary for the full
utilization of the Property for its current purpose have been completed and
dedicated
Β
35
Β
to public
use and accepted by all Governmental Authorities or are the subject of access
easements for the benefit of the Property.
Section
4.15 Condition
of Improvements. To the
Borrower's knowledge, except as may be expressly disclosed in the engineering
reports obtained and submitted to Lender, the Property, including all
Improvements, parking facilities, systems, Equipment and landscaping, are in
good condition, order and repair in all material respects; and there exists no
structural or other material defect or damages to the Property, whether latent
or otherwise. Borrower has not received notice from any insurance company or
bonding company of any defect or inadequacy in the Property, or any part
thereof, which would adversely affect its insurability or cause the imposition
of extraordinary premiums or charges thereon or any termination of any policy of
insurance or bond. No portion of the Property is located in an area as
identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as an area having special
flood hazards. The Property has not been damaged by fire, water, wind or other
cause of loss which has not been fully restored in all material
respects.
Section
4.16 Leases. To
Borrower's best knowledge the rent roll attached hereto as Schedule 3 together
with the schedules and the exhibits attached to such rent roll (collectively,
theΒ "Rent
Roll") is true,
complete and correct and the Property is not subject to any Leases
other than the Leases described in the Rent Roll and any existing subleases
thereunder and the Master Lease. To Borrower's best knowledge no Person has any
possessory interest in the Property or right to occupy the same except under and
pursuant to the provisions of the Leases (and any existing subleases thereunder)
and the Master Lease. As of the date hereof (i) Borrower is the owner and holder
of the landlord's interest under each Lease; (ii) there are no prior assignments
of the landlord's interest by Borrower (and to Borrower's knowledge any prior
landlord) in any Lease or any portion of Rents which are presently outstanding
and have priority over the Assignment of Leases and Rents (the "Assignment
of Leases and Rents"), dated the
date hereof, given by Borrower to Lender and intended to be duly recorded; (iii)
true and correct copies of the Leases have been delivered by Borrower to Lender
or made available to Lender and, to Borrower's knowledge, the Leases have not
been further modified or amended, except as disclosed to Lender in writing on or
prior to the date hereof; (iv) to Borrower's best knowledge, each Lease is in
full force and effect; (v) to Borrower's best knowledge, except as disclosed on
the Rent Roll or in any tenant estoppels delivered to Lender in connection with
the Loan (collectively, the "Tenant
Estoppels"), neither
Borrower nor, to Borrower's knowledge, any tenant under any Lease is in default
under any of the material terms, covenants or provisions of the Lease, and,
except as disclosed to Lender in writing or in any Tenant Estoppels, Borrower
knows of no event which, but for the passage of time or the giving of notice or
both, would constitute an event of default under any Lease; (vi) to Borrower's
best knowledge, except as expressly set forth in the Leases, the Tenant
Estoppels or on the Rent Roll, there are no offsets or defenses to the payment
of any portion of the Rents; and (vii) to Borrower's best knowledge, except as
disclosed on the Rent Roll or in any Tenant Estoppel, all Rents due and payable
under each Lease have been paid in full and, except for estimated payments of
operating expenses and taxes made by tenants in accordance with their Leases, no
Rents have been paid more than one (1) month in advance of the due dates
thereof. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the term "Lease" shall exclude
subleases including the subleases of space covered by the Master
Lease.
Β
36
Β
Section
4.17 Fraudulent
Transfer. Borrower
(1) has not entered into the Loan or any Loan Document with the actual intent to
hinder, delay, or defraud any creditor and (2) received reasonably equivalent
value in exchange for its obligations under the Loan Documents. Giving effect to
the Loan contemplated by the Loan Documents, the fair saleable value of
Borrower's assets exceed and will, immediately following the execution and
delivery of the Loan Documents, exceed Borrower's total liabilities, including,
without limitation, subordinated, unliquidated, disputed or contingent
liabilities. The fair market value of Borrower's assets is and will, immediately
following the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, be greater than
Borrower's probable liabilities, including the maximum amount of its contingent
liabilities or its debts as such debts become absolute and matured. Borrower's
assets do not and, immediately following the execution and delivery of the Loan
Documents will not, constitute unreasonably small capital to carry out its
business as conducted or as proposed to be conducted. Borrower does not intend
to, and does not believe that it will, incur debts and liabilities (including,
without limitation, contingent liabilities and other commitments) beyond its
ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and
amounts to be payable on or in respect of obligations of Borrower).
Section
4.18 Ownership

member of Borrower is Xxxxxxx Properties TRS Holdings, Inc., whose sole
shareholder is Xxxxxxx Properties Holdings II, LLC, whose sole member is Xxxxxxx
Properties Holdings I, LLC, whose sole member is the OP, whose sole general

clear of all Liens other than Permitted Encumbrances, warrants, options and
rights to purchase. Borrower does not have any obligation to any Person to
purchase, repurchase or issue any ownership interest in it. The organizational
chart attached hereto as Schedule 4 is complete and accurate and illustrates all
Persons who have a direct ownership interest in Borrower and the
OP.
Section
4.19 No
Purchase Options. To
Borrower's best knowledge, no tenant, person, party, firm, corporation or other
entity has an option to purchase the Property, any portion thereof or any
interest therein other than options, rights of first refusal and similar rights
to lease space in the Improvements granted to a tenant pursuant to its
respective Lease or in another writing otherwise delivered to Lender and other
than rights of first refusal contained in operating
agreements of members of Borrower in favor of members of the members of
Borrower in the
event of a sale of the Property by Borrower.
Section
4.20 Management

accordance
with that certain Assignment and Subordination of Management Agreement dated of
even date herewith by and among Borrower, Manager and Lender.

to hazardous and/or toxic, dangerous and/or regulated, substances, wastes,
materials, raw materials which include hazardous constituents, pollutants or
contaminants including without limitation, petroleum, tremolite, anthlophylie,

thereto at any time when, in the judgment of Lender, the entitlement of such
claimant is established.
Section
5.3Β Access
to Property. Borrower
shall permit agents, representatives, consultants and employees of Lender to
inspect the Property or any part thereof at reasonable hours upon reasonable
advance notice, subject however to the rights of tenants under their respective
Leases.
Section
5.4 Repairs;
Maintenance and Compliance; Alterations.
5.4.1
Repairs;
Maintenance and Compliance. Borrower
shall at all times maintain, preserve and protect all franchises and trade
names, and Borrower shall cause the Property
to be maintained in a good and safe condition and repair and shall not remove,
demolish or alter
the Improvements or Equipment (except for alterations performed in accordance
with Section 5.4.2 and normal replacement of Equipment with Equipment of
equivalent value and functionality). Borrower shall promptly comply with all
Legal Requirements, including, without limitation, Prescribed Laws, and
immediately cure properly any violation of a Legal Requirement, including,
without limitation, Prescribed Laws; provided,Β however, that
after prior written notice to Lender, Borrower, at its own expense, may contest
by appropriate legal proceeding, promptly initiated and conducted in good faith
and with due diligence, such Legal Requirement, provided that (i) no Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing; (ii) such proceeding shall not be
prohibited by the provisions of any other instrument to which Borrower is

Borrower to comply with such Legal Requirement. Borrower shall notify Lender in
writing within one Business Day after Borrower first receives notice of any such
non-compliance. Borrower shall promptly repair, replace or rebuild any part of
the Property that becomes damaged, worn or dilapidated and shall complete and
pay for any Improvements at any time in the process of construction or
repair.
5.4.2
Alterations. Borrower
shall obtain Lender's prior written consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed, to any alterations to the Improvements,
the cost
of which is reasonably anticipated to exceed $2,500,000 (theΒ "Threshold
Amount") or that
will have a material adverse effect on Borrower's financial condition, the use,
operation or
Β
43
Β
value of
the Property or the Net Operating Income with respect to the Property, other
than
(a)
tenant improvement work performed pursuant to the terms of any Existing Lease,
(b) tenant improvement work performed pursuant to the terms and provisions of a
Lease executed after the date hereof and not adversely affecting any structural
component of any Improvements, any utility or HVAC system contained in any
Improvements or the exterior of any building constituting a part of any
Improvements (it being understood that the foregoing provision shall not require
Lender's consent to tenants' exterior signage pursuant to any Lease approved by
Lender in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement) or (c)
alterations performed in connection with the restoration of the Property after
the occurrence of a Casualty or Condemnation in accordance with the terms and
provisions of this Agreement ("Excluded
Costs"). If Lender
fails to respond to a request for consent under this Section 5.4.2 within ten
(10) Business Days of receipt thereof, such consent shall be deemed granted,
provided that such request shall have been accompanied by all information
reasonably requested by Lender or reasonably necessary for Lender to evaluate
such request and shall have clearly stated, in 14 point type or greater, that if
Lender fails to respond to such request within ten (10) Business Days, Lender's
consent shall be deemed to have been granted. If Lender refuses to grant such
consent, Lender shall specify in writing the reasons for such refusal. Any
approval by Lender of the plans, specifications or working drawings for
alterations of the Property shall not create responsibility or liability on
behalf of Lender for their completeness, design, sufficiency or their compliance
with applicable laws. Lender may condition any such approval upon receipt of a
certificate of compliance with applicable laws from an independent architect,
engineer, or other Person reasonably acceptable to Lender. If the total unpaid
amounts due and payable with respect to alterations to the Improvements (other
than such amounts to be paid or reimbursed by tenants under the Leases or paid
from accounts established hereunder or Excluded Costs) shall at any time exceed
the Threshold Amount, Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender as security for
the payment of such amounts and as additional security for Borrower's
obligations under the Loan Documents any of the following: (1) cash, (2) U.S.
Treasury securities, (3) other securities having a rating acceptable to Lender
and with respect to which the applicable Rating Agencies have delivered a Rating
Comfort Letter, or (4) a Letter of Credit. Such security shall be in an amount
equal to the excess of the total unpaid amounts with respect to alterations to
the Improvements (other than such amounts to be paid or reimbursed by tenants
under the Leases or from accounts established hereunder or Excluded Costs) over
the Threshold Amount. Upon completion of the alterations to the satisfaction of
Lender in its reasonable discretion Lender shall promptly return to Borrower
such additional security.

shall cooperate fully with Lender with respect to, and permit Lender, at its
option, to participate in, any proceedings before

therefor given from time to time after the occurrence and continuation of any

Matters.

Covenants. So long
as Borrower owns or is in possession of the Property, Borrower (i) shall keep or
cause the Property to be kept free from Hazardous Substances except those in
compliance with all Environmental Laws or any permits issued with respect
thereto, (ii) shall promptly notify Lender if Borrower shall become aware of any
release of Hazardous Substances on the Property and/or if Borrower shall become
aware that the Property is in violation of any Environmental Laws and/or if
Borrower shall become aware of any condition on the Property which shall pose a
threat to the health, safety or welfare of humans, and (iii) shall remove or
remediate such Hazardous Substances and/or cure such violations and/or remove or
remediate such threats, as applicable, as required by law (or as shall be
reasonably required by Lender in the case of removal or remediation which is not
required by law, but in response to the opinion of a licensed hydrogeologist,
licensed environmental engineer or other qualified consultant engaged by Lender
("Lender's
Consultant") provided
that such removal, remediation or cure is reasonably necessary to eliminate
imminent danger to the health, safety or welfare of humans and would customarily
be performed by prudent owners of properties similar to the Property in similar
circumstances), promptly after Borrower becomes aware of same, at Borrower's
sole expense, without prejudice to any rights Borrower may have against any
responsible parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section,
Borrower, Manager and/or tenants on the Property may use and store ordinary
amounts of Hazardous Substances at the Property if such use or storage is in
connection with business supplies used by Borrower, a tenant in accordance with
the terms of its Lease or by Manager pursuant to the Management Agreement or is
in connection with the ordinary cleaning and maintenance of the Property so long
as such use and storage (A) does not violate any applicable Environmental Laws
and (B) is not the subject of any specific recommendations in the Phase I
Reports that would prohibit such use or storage. Nothing herein shall prevent
Borrower from recovering such expenses from any other party that may be liable
for such removal or cure. The obligations and liabilities of Borrower under this
Section 5.8.1 shall survive any termination, satisfaction, or assignment of the
Mortgage and the exercise by Lender of any of its rights or remedies hereunder,
including, without limitation, the acquisition of the Property by foreclosure or
a conveyance in lieu of foreclosure; provided that such obligations and
liabilities of Borrower shall not survive after the date Lender or its
Affiliates take title to the Property pursuant to foreclosure or a conveyance in
lieu of foreclosure.
5.8.2
Asbestos. Borrower
represents and warrants that, to Borrower's knowledge, no asbestos or any
substance or material containing asbestos (collectively, "Asbestos")
is
located on the Property except as may have been disclosed in the Phase I
Reports
delivered to Lender in connection with the Loan. Borrower shall not install in
the Property, nor
Β
45
Β
permit to
be installed in the Property, Asbestos and shall remove any Asbestos to the
extent required by applicable Legal Requirements, at Borrower's sole expense.
Borrower shall in all instances comply with, and ensure compliance by all
occupants of the Property with, all applicable federal, state and local laws,
ordinances, rules and regulations with respect to Asbestos and shall keep the
Property free and clear of any liens imposed pursuant to such laws, ordinances,
rules or regulations. In the event that Borrower receives any notice or advice
from any governmental agency or any source whatsoever with respect to Asbestos
on, affecting or installed on the Property, Borrower shall promptly notify
Lender.
5.8.3
Environmental
Monitoring. Except
to the extent already disclosed in the Phase I Reports, Borrower shall give
prompt written notices to Lender of: (a) any proceeding or inquiry by any party
with respect to the presence of any Hazardous Substance or Asbestos on, under,
from or about the Property, (b) all claims made or threatened by any third party
against Borrower or the Property relating to any loss or injury resulting from
any Hazardous Substance or Asbestos, and (c) Borrower's discovery of any
occurrence or condition on any real property adjoining or in the vicinity of the
Property that could reasonably be expected to cause the Property to be subject
to any investigation or cleanup pursuant to any Environmental Law. Borrower
shall permit Lender to join and participate in, as a party if it so elects, any
legal proceedings or actions initiated with respect to the Property in
connection with any actual or alleged violation of Environmental Law or the
presence of Hazardous Substance at the Property, and Borrower shall pay all
reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements incurred by Lender in connection
therewith. Upon Lender's request, at any time and from time to time while the
Loan is outstanding but not more frequently than once per calendar year, unless
Lender has determined (in the exercise of its good faith judgment) that
reasonable cause exists for the performance of an environmental inspection or
audit of the Property, Borrower shall provide at Borrower's sole expense, (i) an
inspection or audit of the Property prepared by a licensed hydrogeologist or
licensed environmental engineer approved by Lender indicating the presence or
absence of Hazardous Substances on, in or near the Property, and (ii) an
inspection or audit of the Property prepared by a duly qualified engineering or
consulting firm approved by Lender, indicating the presence or absence of
Asbestos on the Property; provided,Β however, any such
inspection or audit requested by Lender, during the Term, in excess of one (1)
inspection during each three (3) year period commencing upon the date hereof,
shall be performed at Lender's expense unless an Event of Default exists or
Lender has determined (in the exercise of its good faith judgment) that
reasonable cause exists for the performance of an environmental inspection or
audit. If Borrower fails to provide such inspection or audit within sixty (60)
days after such request Lender may order same, and Borrower hereby grants to
Lender and its employees and agents access to the Property and a license to
undertake such inspection or audit upon reasonable prior notice to Borrower and
in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with tenants or occupants
thereof. The cost of such inspection or audit obtained by Lender upon Borrower's
failure to do so shall bear interest from the date such costs are incurred by
Lender until paid at the Default Rate and shall be due and payable by Borrower
to Lender within ten (10) days after the date Lender makes written demand
therefor, and if not so paid, may be added to the Debt. In the event that any
environmental site assessment report prepared in connection with such inspection
or audit recommends that an operations and maintenance plan be implemented for
Asbestos or any Hazardous Substance, Borrower shall cause such operations and
maintenance plan to be prepared and implemented at Borrower's expense upon
request of Lender. In the event that any investigation, site monitoring,
containment cleanup, removal, restoration, or other work of any
Β
46
Β
kind is
reasonably necessary under an applicable Environmental Law (the "Remedial
Work"), Borrower
shall promptly commence and thereafter diligently prosecute to completion all
such Remedial
Work, provided that in any event Borrower shall complete such Remedial Work
within the time
required by applicable Environmental Law, and provided, further, that Borrower's
obligation to perform Remedial Work shall be without prejudice to any rights
Borrower may . have against responsible parties. All Remedial Work shall be
performed by contractors approved in advance by Lender, and under the
supervision of a consulting engineer approved by Lender. All costs and expenses
of such Remedial Work shall be paid by Borrower including, without limitation,
Lender's reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements incurred in connection
with monitoring or review of such Remedial Work. Nothing herein shall prevent
Borrower from recovering such expenses from any other party that may be liable
for such Remedial Work. In the event
Borrower shall fail to timely commence, or cause to be commenced, or fail to
diligently
prosecute to completion, such Remedial Work, Lender may, but shall not be
required to, cause such Remedial Work to be performed, and all costs and
expenses thereof, or incurred in connection therewith, shall bear interest from
the date such costs are incurred by Lender until paid at
the Default Rate and shall be due and payable by Borrower to Lender within ten
(10) days after
the date Lender makes written demand therefor, and if not so paid, may be added
to the Debt.

Storage Tanks. Borrower
shall not install or permit to be installed on the Property any underground
storage tank.
Section

5.10:1
All new Leases shall be subordinate to the Mortgage and the tenant thereunder
shall agree to attorn to Lender either pursuant to the Lease or a subordination,
nondisturbance and attornment agreement executed by such tenant and Lender. None
of the Leases shall contain any option to purchase, any right of first refusal
to purchase or any right by a tenant to terminate the lease term (except for
termination rights (i) set forth in Leases executed prior to, or on, the date
hereof or (ii) arising from a taking or the destruction of all or substantially
all of the Property or all or substantially all of a tenant's demised premises).
Leases executed after the date hereof shall not contain any provisions which
adversely affect the Property or which might adversely affect the rights of any
holder of the Loan without the prior written consent of Lender. Each tenant
shall conduct business only in that portion of the Property covered by its
Lease. Upon request, Borrower shall furnish Lender with executed copies of all
Leases.
5.10.2
Borrower shall not, without the prior consent of Lender, which consent
shall not
be unreasonably withheld or conditioned (i) enter into any Material Lease of all
or any part of
the Property, (ii) cancel, terminate (other than as a result of a tenant default
thereunder),
abridge
or otherwise modify in any material respect the terms of any Material Lease
unless such action
is required by the terms thereof, or accept a surrender thereof, (iii) consent
to any assignment of or subletting under any Material Lease not in accordance
with its terms,

in connection with a Transfer and Assumption. If Lender fails to respond to a
request for consent under this Section 5.10.2 within ten (10) Business Days of
receipt thereof, such consent shall be deemed granted, provided that such
request shall have been accompanied by all information requested by Lender or
reasonably necessary for Lender to evaluate such request and shall have clearly
stated, in 14 point type or greater, that if Lender fails to respond to such
request within ten (10) Business Days, Lender's consent shall be deemed to have
been granted. In the event that Lender refuses to grant any such consent, Lender
shall specify in writing the reasons for such refusal. In addition, Borrower
shall not (A) lease all or any part of the Property, (B) cancel, terminate
(other than as a result of a. tenant
default thereunder), abridge or otherwise modify the terms of any Lease in any
material respect, or accept a surrender thereof, (C) consent to any assignment

terms. The foregoing shall not apply to any Lease or license entered into with a
Taxable REIT Subsidiary.
5.10.3
Borrower (i) shall observe and perform all the material obligations imposed upon
the lessor, grantor or licensor, as applicable, under the Leases and shall not
do or permit to be done anything to impair the value of the Leases as security
for the Debt; (ii) shall promptly send copies to Lender of all notices of
default which Borrower shall send or receive thereunder; (iii) shall enforce all
the material terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Leases upon the
part of the lessee, grantee or licensee, as applicable, thereunder to be
observed or performed, short of termination thereof (unless by reason of default
thereunder); (iv) shall not collect any of the Rents (other than estimated
payments of taxes and reimbursable expenses paid by tenants pursuant to their
Leases) more than one (1) month in advance; (v) shall not execute any other
assignment of the lessor's interest in the Leases or the Rents except in
connection with a Transfer and Assumption; (vi) shall, upon request of Lender,
request and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and deliver to Lender
tenant estoppel certificates from each commercial tenant at the Property (except
sublease tenants of the Master Lease Space) in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to Lender, provided that Borrower shall not be required to deliver
such certificates more frequently than two (2) times in any calendar year; and
(vii) shall execute and deliver at the request of Lender all such further
assurances, confirmations and assignments in connection with the Property as
Lender shall from time to time reasonably require.
5.10.4
All security deposits of tenants, whether held in cash or any other form, if
cash, shall be deposited by Borrower at such commercial or savings bank or banks
and shall be held in compliance with applicable Legal Requirements, as may be
reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Any bond or other instrument which Borrower
is permitted to hold in lieu of cash security deposits under any applicable
legal requirements shall be maintained in full force and effect in the full
amount of such deposits unless replaced by cash deposits as hereinabove
described, shall (if issued after the date hereof) be fully assignable to Lender
and shall, in all respects, comply with any applicable legal requirements and
otherwise be reasonably satisfactory
Β

Β
to
Lender. Borrower shall, upon request, provide Lender with evidence reasonably
satisfactory to Lender of Borrower's compliance with the foregoing. Following
the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Borrower
shall, upon Lender's request, if permitted by any applicable legal requirements,
turn over to Lender the security deposits (and any interest theretofore earned
thereon) with respect to all or any portion of the Property, to be held by
Lender subject to the terms of the Leases.
5.10.5
Master
Lease. Borrower
and Master Lease Tenant have entered into the Master
Lease, pursuant to which Master Lease Tenant leases from Borrower the entirety
of the Master
Lease Space, which Master Lease provides for full service gross rent and
recoveries of $35 per square foot with respect to the area of the Master Lease
Space (the "Minimum
PSF
Rent and
Recoveries"), for a
term expiring on March 15, 2008. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section
5.10 to the contrary, Borrower may approve the assignment of the Master Lease or
partial release of the Master Lease Tenant from all or any portion of the Master
Lease Space or the Master Lease, provided (i) such
assignment or partial release shall be evidenced by a written modification or
amendment of the Master Lease in accordance with the provisions of this Section
5.10 and Section 3.3 of the Master Lease; provided that Lender's consent to an
assignment of the Master Lease shall not be required in connection with such
assignment if the Master Lease Tenant remains liable under the Master Lease
(otherwise, Lender's consent shall be required for such an assignment, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), (ii) that any space as to which
Master Lease Tenant is released is the subject, in each case, of a new direct
Lease entered into between Borrower and a tenant in accordance with this Section
5.10, and (iii) to the extent that the per square foot contract rent and
recoveries under all such direct Leases is less than the Minimum PSF Rent and
Recoveries under the Master Lease, the per square foot contract rent and
recoveries under the Master Lease with respect to the remaining space demised
thereunder will be automatically increased (pursuant to a written modification
or amendment of the Master Lease in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 5.10) to the extent necessary so that the aggregate contract rent and
recoveries payable with respect to the Master Lease Space under the Master Lease
and all such new direct Leases shall be equal to or greater than Minimum PSF
Rent and Recoveries originally payable with respect to the entirety of the
Master Lease Space under the Master Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is
understood that if (i) Master Lease Tenant seeks a
release
from the Master Lease in accordance with this Section 5.10.5 and (ii) the
aggregate per square foot contract rent and recoveries under all new direct
Leases is less than the Minimum PSF Rent and Recoveries originally payable with
respect to the entirety of the Master Lease Space under the Master Lease, then
in no event shall Borrower release Master Lease Tenant from its remaining
tenancy obligations under the Master Lease. Thus, at least a portion of the
Master Lease Space must either be (i) subleased or (ii) retained as space leased
directly by Master Lease Tenant under the Master Lease, such that, in either
case, Master Lease Tenant shall still be obligated to pay to Borrower, under the
Master Lease, (x) the Minimum PSF Rent and Recoveries originally payable with
respect to the entirety of the Master Lease Space under the Master Lease less
(y) the aggregate contract rent and recoveries payable with respect to all new
direct Leases. No Lender consent or approval shall be required regarding any
subleases entered into by Master Lease Tenant concerning the Master Lease Space.
Upon termination of the Master Lease, Borrower may enter into direct Leases for
all subleased space on the terms set forth in the subleases.

acknowledged and certified, setting forth (i) the unpaid Principal, (ii) the
Interest Rate, (iii) the date installments of interest and/or Principal were
last paid, (iv) any offsets or defenses to the payment of the Debt, and (v) that

Section
5.12 Property
Management.
5.12.1
Management
Agreement. Borrower
shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, the Management Agreement in full
force and effect and timely perform all of Borrower's obligations thereunder and
enforce performance in all material respects of all obligations of the Manager
thereunder, and except as otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents, not permit
the termination or amendment of the Management Agreement unless the prior
written consent of Lender is first obtained, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Borrower shall cause the Manager
to enter into an assignment and subordination of the management agreement in
form satisfactory to Lender (the "Subordination
of Management Agreement"). The
Subordination of Management Agreement shall
assign and subordinate the Manager's interests in the Property and all fees and
other rights of the Manager pursuant to the Management Agreement to the rights
of Lender. Upon an Event of Default, Borrower shall, at Lender's request made at
any time while such Event of Default continues, terminate, or cause the
termination of, the Management Agreement. After the date hereof, Borrower shall
not enter into any agreement relating to the management of the Property with any
party without the express written consent of Lender (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld to the extent that such manager is an affiliate of
Borrower); provided,Β however, with
respect to a new manager of the Property (but not a leasing agent or
subcontractor
appointed in accordance with the Management Agreement) such consent may also be
conditioned upon Borrower delivering (i) a Rating Comfort Letter with respect to
such new manager and management agreement (other than a Qualified Manager that
is Controlled (in the sense of clause (ii) of the defined term "Control") by the
REIT), and (ii) evidence satisfactory to Lender (which shall include, at the
request of Lender, a legal non-consolidation opinion acceptable to Lender) that
the single purpose nature and bankruptcy remoteness of Borrower, its
shareholders,
partners or members, as the case may be, after the engagement of the new
manager are in
accordance with the requirements of the Rating Agencies. If at any time Lender
consents to the appointment of a new manager, such new manager and Borrower
shall, as a condition of Lender's consent, execute an assignment and
subordination of such management agreement in the form then used by
Lender.
5.12.2
Termination
of Manager.
Borrower, upon the request of Lender, shall terminate the Manager, without
penalty or fee, if at any time during the Term (a) the Manager shall become
insolvent or a debtor in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, (b) there
exists an Event of Default for which Lender has not accepted a cure thereof, (c)
the Maturity Date has occurred
and the Loan has not been repaid or (d) the Manager's gross negligence,
malfeasance orΒ willful
misconduct or the occurrence of a default by Manager under the Management
Agreement and its
continuance beyond any applicable notice or cure period. At such time as the
Manager may be removed pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and
provisions of the Loan Documents, a replacement manager and management agreement
acceptable to Lender and the
Β
50
Β
applicable
Rating Agencies in their sole discretion shall assume management of the Property
and shall receive a property management fee not to exceed the then current
market rates.
Section
5.13 Special
Purpose Bankruptcy Remote Entity. Borrower

transaction with an unrelated third party.

Lender's consent. This provision shall apply to every Transfer regardless of

5.26.6
Transfer
and Assumption. (a)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall have the right to Transfer the
Property to another party (the "Transferee
Borrower") and have
the Transferee Borrower assume all of Borrower's obligations under the Loan
Documents, and have replacement guarantors and indemnitors assume all of the

and Assumption"). Borrower
may make a written application to Lender for Lender's consent to the Transfer
and Assumption, subject to the conditions set forth in paragraphs (b) and (c) of
this Section 5.26.6. Together with such written application, Borrower will pay
to Lender the reasonable review fee then required by Lender. Borrower also shall

attorneys' fees and expenses, and including the fees and expenses of Rating
Agencies and other outside entities, in connection with considering any proposed
Transfer and Assumption, whether or not the same is permitted or

withhold its consent to the subject Transfer and Assumption):
(i)Β No
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

comply with Section 5.13 hereof, as those provisions may be modified by Lender
taking into account the ownership structure of Transferee Borrower and its
Affiliates;
(iv)Β If the
Loan, by itself or together with other loans, has been the subject of a
Securitization, then Lender shall have received a Rating Comfort Letter from
the
Β

shall not apply in connection with a Transfer and Assumption to a Transferee
Borrower that is a Permitted REIT Transferee;

Loan has not been the subject of a Securitization, then Lender shall have
determined in its reasonable discretion (taking into consideration such factors
as Lender may determine, including the attributes of the loan pool in which the
Loan might reasonably be expected to be securitized) that no rating for any
securities that would be issued in connection with such securitization will be
diminished, qualified, or withheld by reason of the Transfer and Assumption;
provided that the requirements contained in this clause (v) shall not apply in
connection with a Transfer and Assumption to a Transferee Borrower that is a

Transferee); and
(viii)Β The
identity, experience, and financial condition of the Transferee Borrower and the
replacement guarantors and indemnitors shall be reasonably satisfactory
to Lender; provided that the requirements contained in this clause (viii)
shallΒ not apply
in connection with a Transfer and Assumption to a Transferee Borrower that
is a
Permitted REIT Transferee.
(c)Β If Lender
consents to the Transfer and Assumption, the Transferee Borrower
and/or Borrower as the case may be, shall immediately deliver the following to
Lender
concurrently with the consummation of such Transfer and Assumption:
(i)Β Borrower
shall deliver to Lender an assumption fee in the amount of 0.50% of the then
unpaid Principal less any review fees, costs and expenses previously paid by
Borrower pursuant to the provision of Section 5.26.6(a) and (b)(vi); provided
that, no assumption fee shall apply in connection with either the first Transfer
and Assumption
or in connection withΒ a
Transfer
and Assumption to a Transferee Borrower that is
a Permitted REIT Transferee;

Transferee Borrower and the original and replacement guarantors

substance acceptable to Lender, in Lender's reasonable discretion (the
"Endorsement");
and
(v)Β Borrower
or the Transferee Borrower shall deliver to Lender a payment in the amount of
all remaining unpaid costs incurred by Lender in connection with the
Transfer
and Assumption, including but not limited to, Lender's reasonable attorneys

delivery to
Lender of the Endorsement.
(d)Β Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.26.6,
with
respect to a one-time only Transfer and Assumption, Lender's prior consent shall
not be required in connection with a Transfer and Assumption where either (i)
the Transferee Borrower is a Permitted Transferee; provided that the conditions
set forth in subsection (b) above (other than clause (viii) therein) and
subsection (c) above have been satisfied or (ii) the Transferee Borrower
is a Permitted REIT Transferee; provided that the conditions set forth in
subsection (b) above

the extent that such obligations of Borrower, the OP and Guarantor are expressly
assumed by the Transferee Borrower or replacement guarantor, as the case may be,
in connection with the Transfer and Assumption).

same level it was at prior to the loss, or the expiration of twelve (12) months
from the date that the Property is repaired or replaced and operations are
resumed, whichever first occurs, and notwithstanding that the policy may expire
prior to the end of such period, provided that the unlimited period of
restoration endorsement may be limited to the length of time required
with the exercise of due diligence and dispatch to rebuild, repair or replace
the damaged or
destroyed property; and (D) in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of

year thereafter
based on Borrower's reasonable estimate of the gross income from the Property
for the
succeeding twelve (12) month period. Subject to the rights of Lender and subject
to the provisions of Section 7.4.1(j) below, all proceeds payable to Lender
pursuant to this subsection shall be held by Lender and shall be applied to the
obligations secured by the Loan Documents from time to time due and payable
hereunder and under the Note; provided,Β however, that
nothing herein contained shall be deemed to relieve Borrower of its obligations
to pay the obligations secured by the Loan Documents on the respective dates of
payment provided for in the Note and the other Loan Documents except to the
extent such amounts are actually paid out of the proceeds of such rental
interruption insurance;

if
"certified acts of terrorism", as declared by the United States Government, are
now or hereafter excluded from Borrower's comprehensive all risk insurance
policy or business income coverage, Borrower shall obtain an endorsement to such
policies, or separate policies, insuring against all such "certified acts of
terrorism" (such acts or events so excluded, "Terrorism
Acts"),
at
Borrower's option, either (A) in an amount not less than Three Hundred Sixty
Million and No/100 Dollars ($360,000,000) on an aggregate basis covering the
Property and all other properties owned by the OP and/or its Affiliates and
providing for a deductible not exceeding $1,000,000.00 or (B) in a total amount
not less than Four Hundred Ten Million and No/100 Dollars ($410,000,000) on an
aggregate basis covering the Property and all other properties owned by the OP
and/or its Affiliates as of the date hereof and providing for a deductible of
not in excess of 5% of the full replacement value of the Property; in either
case, the endorsement or policy shall be (x) in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to Lender; and (y) non-cancelable (to the extent such
non-cancelable insurance is available in the marketplace) (insurance meeting
such requirements being referred to herein as "Full
Coverage"); provided
Borrower shall not be required to spend in excess of an amount equal to 200% of
the aggregate amount of the "all risk" insurance premiums payable with respect
to the Property and all other properties owned by the OP and/or its Affiliates
per annum for the last policy year in which coverage for terrorism was included
as part of the "all risk" property policy, adjusted annually by a percentage
equal to the increase in the Consumer Price Index (hereinafter defined) (the
"Terrorism
Premium Cap") for such
coverage and, in the event that Full Coverage is not available at a per annum
cost of the Terrorism Premium Cap, then Borrower shall purchase insurance
covering Terrorism Acts in an amount equal to the principal balance of the Loan,
but shall not be required to maintain the full amount of such coverage if such
coverage is not available at a per annum cost of the Terrorism Premium Cap or
less, provided that in the event that the Terrorism Premium Cap is not
sufficient to purchase such coverage in an amount equal to the principal balance
of the Loan, then Borrower shall obtain the greatest amount of coverage
obtainable at a per annum cost of the Terrorism Premium Cap. As used herein,
"Consumer
Price Index" means the
Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers published by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics of the United States Department of Labor, New York Metropolitan
Statistical Area, All Items (1982-84 = 100), or any successor index thereto,
approximately adjusted, and in the event that the Consumer Price Index is
converted to a different standard reference base or otherwise revised, the
determination of adjustments provided for herein shall be made with the use of
such conversion factor, formula or table for converting the Consumer Price Index
as may be published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics or, if said Bureau shall
not publish the same, then with the use of such conversion factor, formula or
table as may be published by Xxxxxxxx-Xxxx, Inc., or any other nationally
recognized publisher of similar statistical information; and if the Consumer
Price Index ceases to be published, and there is no successor thereto (i) such
other index as Lender and Borrower shall agree upon in writing or (ii) if Lender
and Borrower cannot agree on a substitute index, such other index, as reasonably
selected by Lender.
In the
event that the limits of insurance in place covering Terrorism Acts on a
portfolio basis are
exhausted by damage to a property other than the Property, then Borrower shall
restore the coverage provided for in clause (x) above (or any lesser amount of
coverage that is available if such coverage is not available), to the extent
such insurance is commercially available; and
Β

Β
Β
(j)Β upon
sixty (60) days' written notice, such other reasonable insurance and in such
reasonable amounts as Lender from time to time may reasonably request against
such other insurable hazards which at the time are commonly insured against for
property similar to the Property located in or around the region in which the
Property is located.
7.1.2
Policies. All
insurance provided for in Section 7.1.1 shall be obtained under valid and
enforceable policies (collectively, the "Policies"Β or in the
singular, the "Policy"
and shall
be subject to the reasonable approval of Lender as to insurance companies,
amounts, deductibles, loss payees and insureds. The Policies (or a "cut-through"
endorsement, approved by Lender, with respect to any such Policy) shall be
issued by financially sound and responsible insurance companies authorized to do
business in the State and, except in the case of flood hazard insurance and
earthquake insurance, having either (i) a claims paying ability rating of "A-"
or better by S&P and an equivalent rating by Xxxxx'x or (ii) if the Policies
are provided through a syndicate of companies, (A) at least 75% of the coverage
and primary layer of coverage
shall have a claims paying ability rating of "A, X" or better (and the
equivalent thereof) by A.M.
Best's Key Rating Guide ("Best"), (B) no more than 15% of the Policies shall
have a claims paying ability rating of "A, VIII" or less by Best and (C) no more
than 10% of the Policies shall have a claims paying ability rating of "A VII" or
less by Best's. The Policies described in Section 7.1.1 (other than those
strictly limited to liability protection) shall designate Lender as loss payee
and Lender shall be an additional named insured, as its interests may appear.
Not less than ten (10) days prior to the expiration dates of the Policies
theretofore furnished to Lender, certificates of insurance evidencing the
Policies accompanied by evidence satisfactory to Lender of payment of the
premiums due thereunder shall be delivered by Borrower to Lender.
7.1.3
Insurance
Premiums. Subject
to the provisions of Section 3.3 hereof; Borrower shall pay the premiums for
such Policies (the "Insurance
Premiums") as the
same become due and payable and shall furnish to Lender evidence of the renewal
of each of the Policies with receipts for the payment of the Insurance Premiums
or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender (provided,Β however, that
Borrower is not required to furnish such evidence of payment to Lender in the
event that such Insurance Premiums have been paid by Lender pursuant to Section
3.3 hereof). If Borrower is required to furnish such evidence and receipts
pursuant to the preceding sentence and Borrower does not furnish such evidence
and receipts at least ten (10) days prior to the expiration of any expiring
Policy, then Lender may procure, but shall not be obligated to procure, such
insurance and pay the Insurance Premiums therefor, and Borrower agrees to
reimburse Lender for the cost of such Insurance Premiums promptly on demand.
Within thirty (30) Business Days after request by Lender, Borrower shall obtain
such increases in the amounts of coverage required hereunder as may be
reasonably requested by Lender, taking into consideration changes in the value
of money over time, changes in liability laws, changes in prudent customs and
practices of owners of property similar to the Property located in or around the
region in which the Property is located and as may be available at commercially
reasonable rates. Lender acknowledges that the Policies, delivered with respect
to the Property as of the date hereof satisfy the requirements of this Section
7. Such approval shall continue in effect until the expiration or termination of
such Policies, provided that there is not a downgrade by S&P, Xxxxx'x or
Best of any insurer providing such Policies and, as a result thereof; Borrower
fails to satisfy the rating criteria set forth in Section 7.1.2. Any renewal or
replacement of such Policies, however, shall require
Β
Β
70
Β
Β
Lender's
approval as provided above in this Section 7.1.2 unless (i) the companies
providing such renewal or replacement Policies are licensed to do business in
the state where the Property is located and have a claims paying ability rating
by S&P, Xxxxx'x and Best's Insurance Reports that satisfy the requirements
set forth in Section 7.1.2 above or that, subject to the provisions of Section
7.1.5 below, such rating is no less than the rating as of the date hereof of the
company providing the insurance approved by Lender as of the date hereof, (ii)
the coverage provided by such renewal or replacement Policies is no
less than
the coverage approved by Lender as of the date hereof, (iii) such renewal or
replacement Policies contain in all material respects the same terms and
conditions as the Policies approved by Lender as of the date hereof and (iv)
Lender has not notified Borrower in accordance with this Section 7.1 that the
requirements for the Policies have changed since the date hereof.
7.1.4
Blanket
Policies. The
insurance coverage required under this Section 7.1 may be
effected under one or more blanket Policies covering the Property and other
property and assets
not constituting a part of the Property; provided that any blanket Policy shall
specify, except in the case of general liability insurance, the portion of the
total coverage of such blanket Policy that is allocated exclusively to the
Property and shall comply in all respects with the requirements of this Section
7. Lender hereby confirms that it approves (i) the terms of the existing
Property Insurance Sharing Agreement among Borrower and certain of its
Affiliates, and (ii) that the Insurance Premiums are financed through one or
more finance companies (individually and/or collectively, the "Blanket
Insurance Premium Financing Arrangement") to whom
Borrower pays Borrower's allocable share of the annual initial deposit and the
monthly payments due for each blanket Policy to the applicable finance company
(with respect to each blanket Policy, such monthly payment, together with
one-twelfth (1/12th) of the allocable share of the annual initial deposit
necessary to accumulate such allocable share for such Policy at least thirty
(30) days prior to its due date, each, a "Financing
Installment").
Section
7.2Β Casualty.
7.2.1
Notice;
Restoration. If the
Property shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other
casualty (a "Casualty"),
Borrower
shall give prompt notice thereof to Lender. Following the occurrence of a
Casualty, Borrower, regardless of whether insurance
proceeds are available (unless Lender has breached its obligation (if any) to
make suchΒ insurance
proceeds available pursuant to Section 7.4.1), shall promptly proceed to
restore, repair,Β replace
or rebuild the same to be of at least equal value and of substantially the same
character asΒ prior to
such damage or destruction (aΒ "Casualty
Restoration"), all to be
effected in accordance with
applicable law
7.2.2
Settlement
of Proceeds. If a
Casualty covered by any of the Policies (an "Insured
Casualty") occurs
where the loss does not exceed $1,000,000, provided no Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may settle and adjust any claim
without the prior consent of Lender; provided such adjustment is carried out in
a competent and timely manner, and Borrower is hereby authorized to collect and
receipt for the Insurance Proceeds (as
hereinafter
defined). In the event of an Insured Casualty where the loss exceeds $1,000,000
(a "Significant
Casualty"),
Lender
may, in its sole discretion, settle and adjust any claim without the consent of
Borrower and agree with the insurer(s) in a commercially reasonable manner on
the amount to be paid on the loss, and the Proceeds shall be due
and
Β
Β
71
Β
Β
payable
solely to Lender and held by Lender in the Casualty/Condemnation Subaccount and
disbursed in accordance herewith. If Borrower or any party other than Lender is
a payee on any check representing Proceeds with respect to a Significant
Casualty, Borrower shall immediately endorse, and cause all such third parties
to endorse, such check payable to the order of Lender. Borrower hereby
irrevocably appoints Lender as its attorney-in-fact, coupled with an interest,
to endorse such check payable to the order of Lender. The expenses incurred by
Lender in the settlement, adjustment and collection of the Proceeds shall become
part of the Debt and shall be reimbursed by Borrower to Lender within ten (10)
days following demand. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, if in connection with a Casualty any insurance carrier makes a payment
under a property insurance Policy that Borrower proposes be treated as business
or rental interruption insurance, then, notwithstanding any designation (or lack
of designation) by the insurance carrier as to the purpose of such payment, as
between Lender and Borrower, such payment shall not be treated as business or
rental interruption insurance proceeds unless Borrower has demonstrated to
Lender's reasonable satisfaction that the remaining net Proceeds that will be
received from the property insurance carriers are sufficient to pay 100% of the
cost of fully restoring the Improvements or, if such net Proceeds are to be
applied to repay the Debt in accordance with the terms hereof, that such
remaining net Proceeds, together with any portion of the amount treated as
business or rental interruption insurance that will be paid to Lender, will be
sufficient to pay the Debt in full.
Section
7.3Β Condemnation.
7.3.1
Notice;
Restoration. Borrower
shall promptly give Lender written notice of the actual or threatened
commencement of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding (a "Condemnation")
and shall
deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers served in connection with such
Condemnation. Following the occurrence of a Condemnation, Borrower, regardless
of whether an Award (hereinafter defined) is available (unless Lender has
breached its obligation (if any) to make such Award available pursuant to
Section 7.4.1), shall promptly proceed to restore, repair, replace or rebuild
the same to the extent practicable to be of at least equal value and of
substantially the same character as prior to such Condemnation (a "Condemnation
Restoration", together
with a
Casualty
Restoration, collectively a "Restoration"),
all to be
effected in accordance with applicable law.
7.3.2
Collection
of Award. Lender
is hereby irrevocably appointed as Borrower's attorney-in-fact, coupled with an
interest, with exclusive power to collect, receive and retain any award or
payment ("Award")
for any
taking accomplished through a Condemnation (a "Taking")
and to
make any commercially reasonable compromise or settlement in connection with any
such Condemnation, subject to the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Borrower shall have the right, provided no Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, to compromise and collect or receive any
award that does not exceed $1,000,000. Notwithstanding any Taking by any public
or quasi-public authority (including, without limitation, any transfer made in
lieu of or in anticipation of such a Taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the
Debt at the time and in the manner provided for in the Note, in this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents and the Debt shall not be reduced unless and until
any Award shall have been actually received and applied by Lender to expenses of
collecting the Award and to discharge of the Debt. Lender shall not be limited
to the interest paid on the Award by the condemning authority but shall be
entitled to receive out of the
Β
Β
72
Β
Β
Award
interest at the rate or rates provided in the Note. Borrower shall cause any
Award that is payable to Borrower to be paid directly to Lender. The expenses
incurred by Lender in the adjustment and collection of the Award shall become
part of the Debt and be secured hereby and shall be reimbursed by Borrower to
Lender within ten (10) days after the date Lender makes written demand
therefor.
Section
7.4 Application
of Proceeds or Award.
Β
7.4.1
Application
to Restoration. The
following provisions shall apply in connection with the Restoration of the
Property and Improvements:
Β
(a)Β If the
Net Proceeds shall be less than $1,000,000 and the costs of completing the
Restoration shall be less than $1,000,000, the Net Proceeds will be disbursed by
Lender to Borrower upon receipt, provided that all of the conditions set forth
in Section 7.4.1(c)(i) are met and Borrower delivers to Lender a written
undertaking to expeditiously commence and to satisfactorily complete with due
diligence the Restoration in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement.

to Section 7.1.1(a), (d), (f), (i) and (j) (and any similar or comparable types
of insurance obtained pursuant to Section 7.1.1(i) as a result of such damage or
destruction, after deduction of its reasonable costs and expenses (including,

Proceeds shall be made available to Borrower for Restoration provided that each
of the following conditions are met:
Β
(i)Β no Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;
(ii)Β (1) in
the event the Net Proceeds are Insurance Proceeds, less than thirty percent
(30%) of the total floor area of the Improvements has been damaged, destroyed or
rendered unusable as a result of such fire or other casualty or (2) in the event
the Net Proceeds are Condemnation Proceeds, less than fifteen percent (15%) of
the land constituting the Property is taken, and such land is located along the
perimeter or periphery of the Property, and no portion of the Improvements is
located in such land;
Β
(iii)Β Leases
demising in the aggregate a percentage amount equal to or greater than the
Rentable Space Percentage of the total rentable space in the Improvements shall
remain in full force and effect during and after the completion of the
Restoration, notwithstanding
the occurrence of any such fire or other casualty or taking, whichever
the case may
be. The term "Rentable
Space Percentage" shall
mean (1) in the event the Net Proceeds are Insurance Proceeds, a percentage
amount equal to seventy-five percent
Β
Β
73
Β
Β
(75%) and
(2) in the event the Net Proceeds are Condemnation Proceeds, a percentage amount
equal to seventy-five percent (75%) which Rentable Space Percentage shall, in
each case, include each of the Required Leases. The "Required
Leases" shall
mean, collectively, the Master Lease and the Leases with Countrywide Home Loans,
Inc., Royal Indemnity Company, and Zurich American Insurance Company, or any
replacement Lease executed and delivered in accordance with the terms and
provisions of Section 5.10 hereof with respect to the space demised to any of
the foregoing tenants, provided such replacement Lease is a Material
Lease;
Β
(iv)Β Borrower
shall commence the Restoration as soon as reasonably practicable
(but in no event later than ninety (90) days after such damage or
destruction or
taking, whichever the case may be, occurs) and shall diligently pursue the same
to satisfactory completion;
Β
(v)Β Lender
shall be reasonably satisfied that any operating deficits, including all
scheduled payments of principal and interest under the Note, which will be
incurred with
respect to the Property as a result of the occurrence of any such fire or other
casualty or
taking, whichever the case may be, will be covered out of (1) the Net Proceeds,
(2) the insurance coverage referred to in Section 7.1.1(c), if applicable, or
(3) by other funds of Borrower;
Β
(vi)Β Lender
shall be satisfied that the Restoration will be completed on or before the
earliest to occur of (1) six (6) months prior to the Maturity Date, (2) the
earliest date required for such completion under the terms of any Required
Lease, (3) such time as may be required under applicable zoning law, ordinance,
rule or regulation in order to repair and restore the Property to the condition
it was in immediately prior to such fire or other casualty or to as nearly as
possible the condition it was in immediately prior to such taking, as applicable
or (4) the expiration of the insurance coverage referred to in Section
7.1.1(c);
Β
(vii)Β the
Property and the use thereof after the Restoration will be in compliance with
and permitted under all applicable zoning laws, ordinances, rules and
regulations and all necessary operating or reciprocal easement agreements for
the operation and maintenance of the Property are, or remain, in
effect;
(viii)Β the
Restoration shall be done and completed by Borrower in an expeditious and
diligent fashion and in compliance with all applicable governmental laws,
rules and regulations (including, without limitation, all applicable
environmental laws);
and
(ix)Β such fire
or other casualty or taking, as applicable, does not result in a material loss
of access to the Property.
Β
(d)Β Unless
such amounts are payable to Borrower pursuant to Section 7.2 or 7.3, the
Net Proceeds shall be held by Lender in an interest-bearing account for the
benefit of Borrower (which interest shall be added to and become a part of the
Net Proceeds) and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 7.4, shall constitute additional
Β
Β
74
Β
Β
security
for the Debt and other obligations under the Loan Documents. The Net Proceeds
shall be disbursed by Lender to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time
during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to Lender that (A) all materials installed and work and labor
performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the
requested disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been paid for in
full, and (B) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic's or
materialman's liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other liens or
encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Property arising out of the
Restoration which have not either been fully bonded to the satisfaction of
Lender and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the
reasonable satisfaction of Lender by the title company issuing the title
insurance policy.
(e)Β All plans
and specifications required in connection with any Restoration following a
Casualty or Condemnation resulting in Net Proceeds of $2,500,000 or more shall
be subject to prior review and reasonable acceptance in all respects by Lender
and by an independent consulting engineer selected by Lender (the "Casualty
Consultant") provided
that if the correspondence from Borrower to Lender requesting approval of any
such plans and specifications (or contractors, subcontractors or materialmen in
connection therewith) contains a bold faced, conspicuous legend at the top of
the first page stating that "IF YOU FAIL TO RESPOND TO THIS REQUEST FOR APPROVAL
IN WRITING WITHIN 15 BUSINESS DAYS, YOUR APPROVAL SHALL BE DEEMED GIVEN", and if
Lender fails to respond to such request for approval in writing within fifteen
(15) Business Days after receipt by Lender of such written request, the related
plans and specifications and all information reasonably required in order to
adequately review the same, then such approval will be deemed given. Lender
shall have the use of the plans and specifications and all permits, licenses and
approvals required or obtained in connection with the Restoration. The identity
of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in any Restoration
following a Casualty or Condemnation resulting in Net Proceeds of $2,500,000 or
more, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be
subject to prior review and acceptance by Lender and the Casualty Consultant,
which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. All
costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with making the Net Proceeds
available for the Restoration including, without limitation, reasonable counsel
fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant's fees, shall be paid by
Borrower.
(f)Β In no
event shall Lender be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in
excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for
work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty
Consultant, minus the Casualty Retainage. The term "Casualty
Retainage" shall
mean an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the hard costs actually incurred
for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty
Consultant, until the Restoration has been completed. The Casualty Retainage
shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above
in this clause (f), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from
contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration. The
Casualty Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant certifies
to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 7.4.1 and that all approvals necessary for the
re-occupancy and use of the Property have been obtained from all appropriate
governmental and quasi governmental authorities, and Lender receives evidence
satisfactory to Lender that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full
or will be paid in full out of the Casualty Retainage;
Β
Β
75
Β
Β
provided,Β however, that
Lender will release the portion of the Casualty Retainage being held with
respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the
Restoration as of the date upon which the Casualty Consultant certifies to
Lender that the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily
completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the
provisions of the contractor's, subcontractor's or materialman's contract, the
contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence
of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or
materialman as may be reasonably requested by Lender or by the title company
issuing the title insurance policy, and Lender receives an endorsement to the
title insurance policy insuring the continued priority of the lien of the
Mortgage and evidence of payment of any premium payable for such endorsement. If
required by Lender, the release of any such portion of the Casualty Retainage
shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or
performance bond with respect to the contractor, subcontractor or
materialman.
Β
(g)Β Lender
shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently
than once every calendar month.
Β
(h)Β If at any
time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the
reasonable opinion of Lender in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, be
sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are estimated by the
Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the
Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the "Net
Proceeds Deficiency") with
Lender before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. The
Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender shall be held by Lender and shall
be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on
the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and
until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 7.4 shall constitute additional
security for the Debt and other obligations under the Loan
Documents.
Β
(i)Β The
excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the
Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Lender after the Casualty Consultant
certifies to Lender that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with
the provisions of this Section 7.4.1, and the receipt by Lender of evidence
satisfactory to Lender that all costs incurred in connection with the
Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Lender to Borrower,
provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing under
the Note, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.
Β
(j)Β Notwithstanding
the last sentence of Section 7.1.1(c) and provided no Event of Default exists
hereunder, proceeds received by Lender on account of the rental or business
interruption insurance specified in Section 7.1.1(c) above with respect to any
Casualty shall either (x) at any time other than during the continuance of a

sole discretion shall deem proper, or, at the discretion of Lender, the same may
be paid, either in whole or in part, to Borrower for such purposes as Lender
shall designate, in its discretion. So long as no Event of Default has occurred

Section
8.2Β Remedies.
8.2.1
Acceleration. Upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in
paragraph (f) or (g) of Section 8.1) and at any time and from time to time
thereafter, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to it pursuant
to the Loan Documents or at law or in equity, Lender may take such action,
without notice or demand, that Lender deems advisable to protect and enforce its
rights against Borrower and in and to the Property including declaring the Debt
to be immediately due and payable (including unpaid interest, Default Rate
interest, Late Payment Charges, Yield Maintenance Premium and any other amounts
owing by Borrower), without notice or demand; and upon any Event of Default
described in paragraph (f) or (g) of Section 8.1, the Debt (including unpaid
interest, Default Rate interest, Late Payment Charges, Yield Maintenance Premium
and any other amounts owing by Borrower) shall immediately and automatically
become due and payable, without notice or demand, and Borrower hereby expressly
waives any such notice or demand, anything contained in any Loan Document to the
contrary notwithstanding.
8.2.2
RemediesΒ Cumulative. Upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, all or any one or more of the rights, powers,
privileges and other remedies available to Lender against Borrower under the
Loan Documents or at law or in equity may be exercised by Lender at any time and
from time to time, whether or not all or any of the Debt shall be declared, or
be automatically, due and payable, and whether or not Lender shall have
commenced any foreclosure proceeding or other action for the enforcement of its
rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents. Any such actions taken by
Lender shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued independently,
singly, successively, together or otherwise, at such time and in such order as
Lender may determine in its discretion, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
without impairing or otherwise affecting the other rights and remedies of Lender
permitted by law, equity or contract or as set forth in the Loan Documents.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower agrees that if an
Event of Default is continuing, (i) to the extent
Β
Β
79
Β
Β
permitted
by applicable law, Lender is not subject to any "one action" or "election of
remedies" law or rule, and (ii) all Liens and other rights, remedies or
privileges provided to Lender shall remain in
full force and effect until Lender has exhausted all of its remedies against the
Property, the
Mortgage has been foreclosed, the Property has been sold and/or otherwise
realized upon in satisfaction of the Debt or the Debt has been paid in full. To
the extent permitted by applicable law, nothing contained in any Loan Document
shall be construed as requiring Lender to resort to any portion of the Property
for the satisfaction of any of the Debt in preference or priority to any other
portion, and Lender may seek satisfaction out of the entire Property or any part
thereof, in its discretion.
8.2.3
Severance. Lender
shall have the right from time to time to sever the Note and the other Loan
Documents into one or more separate notes, mortgages and other security
documents in such denominations and priorities of payment and liens as Lender
shall determine in its discretion for purposes of evidencing and enforcing its
rights and remedies. Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender from time to
time, promptly after the request of Lender, a
severance
agreement and such other documents as Lender shall request in order to effect
the severance described in the preceding sentence, all in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to Lender. Borrower hereby absolutely and irrevocably
appoints Lender as its true and lawful attorney, coupled with an interest, in
its name and stead to make and execute all documents necessary or desirable to
effect such severance, Borrower ratifying all that such attorney shall do by
virtue thereof.
8.2.4
Delay. No delay
or omission to exercise any remedy, right or power accruing upon an Event of
Default, or the granting of any indulgence or compromise by Lender shall impair
any such remedy, right or power hereunder or be construed as a waiver thereof,
but any such remedy, right or power may be exercised from time to time and as
often as may be deemed expedient. A waiver of one Default or Event of Default
shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of
Default or to impair any remedy, right or power consequent
thereon. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Lender reserves
the right to
seek a deficiency judgment or preserve a deficiency claim in connection with the
foreclosure of the Mortgage to the extent necessary to foreclose on all or any
portion of the Property, the Rents, the Cash Management Accounts or any other
collateral.
8.2.5
Lender'sΒ RightΒ toΒ Perform. If
Borrower fails to perform any covenant or obligation
contained herein (including the covenant set forth in the last sentence of
Section 5.4. 1) and such
failure shall continue for a period of five Business Days after Borrower's
receipt of written notice thereof from Lender, without in any way limiting
Lender's right to exercise any of its rights, powers or remedies as provided
hereunder, or under any of the other Loan Documents, Lender may, but shall have
no obligation to, perform, or cause performance of, such covenant or obligation,
and all costs, expenses, liabilities, penalties and fines of Lender incurred or
paid in connection therewith shall be payable by Borrower to Lender within ten
(10) days after the date Lender makes written demand therefor and, if not paid,
shall be added to the Debt (and to the extent permitted under applicable laws,
secured by the Mortgage and other Loan Documents) and shall bear interest
thereafter at the Default Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lender shall have
no obligation to send notice to Borrower of any such failure.

representations and warranties as of the closing date of the Securitization with
respect to the Property, Borrower, Parent, the Note, Loan Agreement and other
Loan Documents as may be reasonably requested by the holder of the Note, the

(g)Β execute
such amendments to the Note, Loan Agreement, other Loan Documents and

amendments as shall be necessary or advisable to sever the Note (and/or any then
existing component thereof) into one or more notes and/or one or more components
and allocate Principal amounts thereof in order to effectuate one or more
sales of the Note (and/or the resulting notes or components thereof) and/or to
correspond to the
related classes of Securities in one or more Securitizations so long as, in all
such cases, the overall duration-weighted interest rate over all of the notes
and components shall equal the Interest Rate); provided,Β however, that
Borrower shall not be required to modify or amend the Note, Loan Agreement or
any other Loan Documents if such modification or amendment would (i) have a
material adverse economic effect on Borrower or its Affiliates, (ii) modify or
amend the loan term, amortization or any other economic term of the Loan or
(iii) otherwise materially increase the obligations or materially decrease the
rights of Borrower or the other parties pursuant to the Note, Loan Agreement and

9.1.2
CostsΒ andΒ Expenses.
Borrower, the REIT and their Affiliates will bear their own internal costs of
cooperation required by this Agreement in connection with any Securitization,
but Lender shall be responsible for all other out-of-pocket costs and expenses

9.1.3
Indemnification. Borrower
and its respective Affiliates understand that certain of the Provided
Information may be included in disclosure documents in connection
with
Β
Β
82
Β
Β
each
Securitization, including, without limitation, a prospectus, prospectus
supplement, private placement memorandum, collateral term sheets, structured
term sheets and computational materials (each, a "Disclosure
Document") and may
also be included in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant
to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act'), or
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
Act'), or
provided or made available to Investors in the Securities, the Rating Agencies
and service providers relating to such Securitization. In the event that such
Disclosure Document is required to be revised prior to the sale of all
Securities, Borrower, and its respective Affiliates will cooperate with the
holder of the Note in updating the Disclosure Document by providing all current
information necessary to keep the Disclosure Document accurate and complete in
all material respects; provided,Β however, that
this provision shall be limited to those portions of the Disclosure Statement
that described Borrower or any of its Affiliates, the Property, the Loan or the
other Loan Documents.
(a)Β In the
case of each Securitization, Borrower agrees to cooperate in connection with (i)
the preparation of a preliminary and a final private placement memorandum and/or
(ii) the preparation of a preliminary and final prospectus or prospectus
supplement, as applicable, and (iii) the execution of an indemnification
certificate (A) certifying that Borrower has carefully examined in each such
memorandum or prospectus, as applicable, all sections containing information
relating to the Property, Parent, Borrower, any Affiliates of Parent, Borrower,
or the Loan, and that such information included therein (collectively, the
"Securitization
Information"), does not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
known to Borrower that is necessary in order to make the statements made, in the
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (B)
indemnifying Lender (and for purposes of this Section 9.1.3, Lender hereunder
shall include its officers, directors and employees), the Person who acts as
depositor, issuer and/or registrant who may have filed a registration statement
relating to the Securitization, each underwriter or placement
agent involved in the Securitization, each of their respective directors and
officers and each
Person who controls such Person within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act or Section
20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, theΒ "Indemnified
Group"), for any
losses, claims, damages
or liabilities (collectively, the "Liabilities")
to which
any of the Indemnified Group may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise
out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any
material fact contained in the Securitization Information which untrue or
alleged untrue statement is not expressly disclosed to Lender by Borrower after
Borrower has been given an opportunity to review the Securitization Information,
or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state
therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading and (C) agreeing to reimburse each Person in the
Indemnified Group for any legal or other expenses incurred by each such Person
in connection with investigating or defending the Liabilities for which an
indemnity is owed hereunder; provided,Β however, that
Borrower will be liable in any such case under clauses (B) or (C) above only to
the extent that any such Liability arises out of or is based upon any Provided
Information or upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material
fact known to Borrower that is required to be stated therein or necessary in
order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading, or any other information furnished to Lender or
any other Person in the Indemnified Group by Borrower or an affiliate in
connection with the preparation of any Disclosure Document or in connection with
the
Β

Β
Β
underwriting
of the Debt, including, without limitation, financial statements of Borrower,
operating statements, rent rolls, environmental site assessment reports and
Property condition reports with respect to the Property. This indemnity
agreement will be in addition to any liability which Borrower may otherwise
have.
Β
(b)Β In the
case of each Securitization, in connection with filings under the Exchange Act,
Borrower agrees to indemnify (i) each Person in the Indemnified Group for
Liabilities to which each such Person may become subject insofar as the
Liabilities arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or an alleged
untrue statement in the Provided Information or an omission or alleged omission
to state in the Provided Information a material fact known to Borrower that is
necessary in order to make the statements in the Provided Information, in light
of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, which untrue or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission is not expressly
disclosed to Lender by Borrower after Borrower has been given an opportunity to
review such filings under the Exchange Act and (ii) each Person in the
Indemnified Group for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by each
such Person in connection with defending or investigating the Liabilities for
which an indemnity is owed hereunder.
Β
(c)Β Promptly
after receipt by a party seeking indemnification hereunder of notice of the
commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of
which a claim is to be made under this Section 9.1.3, such party will notify
Borrower in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission to so notify
Borrower will not relieve Borrower from any liability which Borrower may have to
any indemnified party hereunder except to the extent that failure to notify
causes prejudice to Borrower. In the event that any action is brought against
any indemnified party, and it notifies Borrower of the commencement thereof,
Borrower will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that
Borrower may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly
after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the
defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party.
After notice from Borrower to such indemnified party hereunder, Borrower shall
be responsible for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such
indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable
costs of investigation; provided,Β however, if the
defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and Borrower
and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there are any
legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are
different from or in addition to those available to Borrower, the indemnified
party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assert such
legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on
behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Borrower shall not be liable for
the expenses of more than one separate counsel unless an indemnified party shall
have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to Borrower
that are different from or additional to those available to another indemnified
party.
(d)Β In order
to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which any
indemnification provided for under this Section 9.1.3 is for any reason held to
be unenforceable, unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified
party in respect of any Liabilities which would otherwise be indemnifiable
hereunder, Borrower shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the
indemnified party as a result of such Liabilities; provided,Β however, that if
any indemnified party is guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within
the
Β
Β
84
Β
Β
meaning
of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) it shall not be entitled to contribution
from Borrower if Borrower was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
In determining the amount of contribution to which the respective parties are
entitled, the following factors shall be considered: (i) the relative knowledge
and access to information concerning the matter with respect to which a claim
was asserted; (ii) the opportunity to correct and prevent any statement or
omission; and (iii) any other equitable considerations appropriate in the
circumstances. Lender and Borrower hereby agree that it would not be equitable
if the amount of such contribution were determined by pro rata or per capita
allocation.
(e)Β The
liabilities and obligations of Borrower and its Affiliates hereunder
shall
survive the termination of the Note, Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents and
the
satisfaction and discharge of the Debt.
(f)Β Each
Person in the Indemnified Group is an intended third party beneficiary of the
obligations of Borrower herein.
9.1.4
RatingΒ Surveillance. Lender
will retain the Rating Agencies to provide rating surveillance services on
Securities. The pro rata expenses of such surveillance will be paid for by
Borrower based on the applicable percentage of such expenses determined by
dividing the then outstanding Principal by the then aggregate outstanding amount
of the pool created in the Securitization which includes the Loan.
9.1.5
SeveranceΒ ofΒ Loan. Lender
shall have the right, at any time (whether prior to, in connection with, or
after any Securitization), with respect to all or any portion of the Loan, to
modify, split and/or sever all or any portion of the Loan as hereinafter
provided. Without limiting
the foregoing, Lender may (i) cause the Note and the Mortgage to be split into a
first and second
mortgage loan, (ii) create one more senior and subordinate notes (i.e., an A/B
or A/B/C structure), (iii) create multiple components of the Note or Notes (and
allocate or reallocate the Principal
balance of the Loan among such components) or (iv) otherwise sever the Loan into
two or more
loans secured by mortgages, in each such case, in whatever proportion and
whatever priority Lender determines; provided,Β however, in each
such instance the outstanding Principal balance of all the. Notes evidencing the
Loan (or components of such Notes) immediately after the effective date of such
modification equals the outstanding Principal balance of the Loan immediately
prior to such modification and the weighted average of the interest rates for
all such Notes (or components of such Notes) immediately after the effective
date of such modification equals the interest rate of the original Note
immediately prior to such modification and such action shall not result in
additional costs to Borrower except as expressly provided above. If requested by
Lender, Borrower (and Borrower's constituent members, if applicable, and
Guarantor)
shall execute within five (5) Business Days after such request, such
documentation as Lender
may reasonably request to evidence and/or effectuate any such modification or
severance.

amount of the Debt or to require that all collateral shall continue to secure

fully recourse

other than in connection with a default under subsection (x) of the definition

Section
10.7 Modification,Β WaiverΒ inΒ Writing. No
modification, amendment, extension, discharge, termination or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document, nor consent to any
departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same
shall be in a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought,

RIGHT BY JURY, AND WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY FULLY TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY

ISSUE AS TO WHICH THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WOULD OTHERWISE ACCRUE. EITHER
PARTY IS HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH IN ANY PROCEEDING AS
CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER BY THE OTHER.
Section
10.9 Headings/Exhibits. The
Section headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of
reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other
purpose. The Exhibits attached hereto, are hereby incorporated by reference as a
part of the Agreement with the same force and effect as if set forth in the body
hereof.
Section
10.10 Severability. Wherever
possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner
as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this
Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision
shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without
invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this
Agreement.
Section
10.11 Preferences. Upon the
occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the
continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and reapply any and all
payments by Borrower to any portion of the Debt. To the extent Borrower makes
a
Β
Β
90
Β
Β
payment
to Lender, or Lender receives proceeds of any collateral, which is in whole or
part subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set
aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under
any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then,
to the extent of such payment or proceeds received, the Debt or
part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue in full
force and effect, as if
such payment or proceeds had not been received by Lender. This provision shall
survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the
Debt.
Section
10.12 WaiverΒ ofΒ Notice. Borrower
shall not be entitled to any notices of any nature whatsoever from Lender except
with respect to matters for which this Agreement or any other Loan Document
specifically and expressly requires the giving of notice by Lender to Borrower
and except with respect to matters for which Borrower is not, pursuant to
applicable Legal Requirements, permitted to waive the giving of notice. Borrower
hereby expressly waives the right to receive any notice from Lender with respect
to any matter for which no Loan Document specifically and expressly requires the
giving of notice by Lender to Borrower.
Section
10.13 RemediesΒ ofΒ Borrower. If a
claim or adjudication is made that Lender or
any of its agents, including Servicer, has acted unreasonably or unreasonably
delayed acting
in any case where by law or under any Loan Document, Lender or any such agent,
as the case may be, has an obligation to act reasonably or promptly, Borrower
agrees that neither Lender nor its agents, including Servicer, shall be liable
for any monetary damages, and Borrower's sole remedy shall be to commence an
action seeking injunctive relief or declaratory judgment. Any action or
proceeding to determine whether Lender has acted reasonably shall be determined
by an action seeking declaratory judgment. Borrower specifically waives any
claim against Lender and its agents, including Servicer, with respect to actions
taken by Lender or its agents on Borrower's behalf.
Section
10.14 PriorΒ Agreements. This
Agreement and the other Loan Documents contain the entire agreement of the
parties hereto and thereto in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby
and thereby, and all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations among or
between such parties, whether oral or written, are superseded by the terms of
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
Section
10.15 Offsets,Β CounterclaimsΒ andΒ Defenses. Borrower
hereby waives the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a mandatory or
compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against it by
Lender or its agents, including Servicer, or otherwise offset any obligations to
make payments required under the Loan Documents. Any assignee of Lender's
interest in and to the Loan Documents shall take the same free and clear of all
offsets, counterclaims or defenses which Borrower may otherwise have against any
assignor of such documents, and no such offset, counterclaim or defense shall be
interposed or asserted by Borrower in any action or proceeding brought by any
such assignee upon such documents, and any such right to interpose or assert any
such offset, counterclaim or defense in any such action or proceeding is hereby
expressly waived by Borrower.
Section
10.16 Publicity. All news
releases, publicity or advertising through any media
intended to reach the general public (collectively,Β "Public
Releases") issued by
Borrower or its
Affiliates that refer to the Loan Documents, the Loan, Lender or any member of
the
Β
Β
91
Β
Β
Indemnified
Group, a Loan purchaser, the Servicer or the trustee in a Securitization shall
be subject to the prior written approval of Lender. Lender shall have the right
to issue any Public Releases without Borrower's approval.
Section
10.17 NoΒ Usury. Borrower
and Lender intend at all times to comply with applicable state law or applicable
United States federal law (to the extent that it permits Lender to contract for,
charge, take, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under state
law) and that this Section 10.17 shall control every other agreement in the Loan
Documents. If the applicable law (state or federal) is ever judicially
interpreted so as to render usurious any amount called for under the Note or any
other Loan Document, or contracted for, charged, taken, reserved or received
with respect to the Debt, or if Lender's exercise of the option to accelerate
the maturity of the Loan or any prepayment by Borrower results in Borrower
having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable law, then it
is Borrower's and Lender's express intent that all excess amounts theretofore
collected by Lender shall be credited against the unpaid Principal and all other
Debt (or, if the Debt has been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded to
Borrower), and the provisions of the Loan Documents immediately be deemed
reformed and the amounts thereafter collectible thereunder reduced, without the
necessity of the execution of any new document, so as to comply with applicable
law, but so as to permit the recovery of the fullest amount otherwise called for
thereunder. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lender for the .use,
forbearance or detention of the Loan shall, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the
full stated term of the Loan until payment in full so that the rate or amount of
interest on account of the Debt does not exceed the maximum lawful rate from
time to time in effect and applicable to the Debt for so long as the Debt is
outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan
Document, it is not the intention of Lender to accelerate the maturity of any
interest that has not accrued at the time of such acceleration or to collect
unearned interest at the time of such acceleration.
Section
10.18 Conflict;Β ConstructionΒ ofΒ Documents. In the
event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and any of the
other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The
parties hereto acknowledge that each is represented by separate counsel in
connection with the negotiation and drafting of the Loan Documents and that the
Loan Documents shall not be subject to the principle of construing their meaning
against the party that drafted them.
Section
10.19 NoΒ ThirdΒ PartyΒ Beneficiaries. The Loan
Documents are solely for the benefit of Lender and Borrower and nothing
contained in any Loan Document shall be deemed to
confer upon anyone other than the Lender and Borrower any right to insist upon
or to enforce
the performance or observance of any of the obligations contained
therein.
Section
10.20 YieldΒ MaintenanceΒ Premium. Borrower
acknowledges that
(a)
Lender is making the Loan in consideration of the receipt by Lender of all
interest and other benefits intended to be conferred by the Loan Documents and
(b) if payments of Principal are made to Lender prior to the Stated Maturity
Date, for any reason whatsoever, whether voluntary, as a result of Lender's
acceleration of the Loan after an Event of Default, by operation of law or
otherwise, Lender will not receive all such interest and other benefits and may,
in addition, incur costs. For these reasons, and to induce Lender to make the
Loan, Borrower agrees that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, all
prepayments, if any, whether voluntary or involuntary,
Β
Β
92
Β
Β
will be
accompanied by the Yield Maintenance Premium. Such Yield Maintenance Premium
shall be required whether payment is made by Borrower, by a Person on behalf of
Borrower, or by the purchaser at any foreclosure sale, and may be included in
any bid by Lender at such sale. Borrower further acknowledges that (A) it is a
knowledgeable real estate developer and/or investor; (B) it fully understands
the effect of the provisions of this Section 10.20, as well as the other
provisions of the Loan Documents; (C) the making of the Loan by Lender at the
Interest Rate and other terms set forth in the Loan Documents are sufficient
consideration for Borrower's obligation to pay a Yield Maintenance Premium (if
required); and (D) Lender would not make the Loan on the terms set forth herein
without the inclusion of such provisions. Borrower also acknowledges that the
provisions of this Agreement limiting the right of prepayment and providing for
the payment of the Yield Maintenance Premium and other charges specified herein
were independently negotiated and bargained for, and constitute a specific
material part of the consideration given by Borrower to Lender for the making of
the Loan except as expressly permitted hereunder. BORROWER
EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND UNDERSTANDS
THAT,
PURSUANT
TO THE
TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, BORROWER HAS AGREED THAT IT DOES NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO
PREPAY
THE LOAN
IN WHOLE OR IN PART WITHOUT
PREMIUM EXCEPT AS
OTHERWISE PROVIDED HEREIN, AND THAT BORROWER SHALL BE LIABLE FOR THE PAYMENT OF
THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM OR YIELD MAINTENANCE PREMIUM, AS APPLICABLE AND TO THE
EXTENT PROVIDED HEREIN IF BORROWER PREPAYS THE LOAN FOLLOWING THE OCCURRENCE
OF AN
ACCELERATION OF THE LOAN. FURTHERMORE,
BORROWER
WAIVES ANY RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE UNDER SECTION 2954.10
OF THE
CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE, OR ANY SUCCESSOR STATUTE, AND BORROWER AGREES THAT
IF A
PREPAYMENT OF ANY OR ALL OF THIS AGREEMENT IS MADE FOLLOWING ANY ACCELERATION OF
THE MATURITY DATE BY LENDER ON ACCOUNT
OF ANY TRANSFER OR DISPOSITION PROHIBITED OR RESTRICTED HEREIN OR
BY
THE
MORTGAGE, BORROWER SHALL BE OBLIGATED TO
PAY
CONCURRENTLY THEREWITH THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM OR YIELD MAINTENANCE
PREMIUM, IF ANY. BORROWER EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND
UNDERSTANDS THAT LENDER HAS MADE THE LOAN EVIDENCED HEREBY IN RELIANCE ON THE
FOREGOING AGREEMENTS AND WAIVERS OF BORROWER, THAT LENDER WOULD NOT HAVE MADE
THIS LOAN WITHOUT
SUCH
AGREEMENTS AND WAIVERS OF BORROWER, AND THAT THE MAKING OF THE
LOAN AT THE INTEREST RATE AND FOR THE TERMS SET FORTH HEREIN
CONSTITUTES ADEQUATE CONSIDERATION, GIVEN WEIGHT BY THE UNDERSIGNED,
FOR SUCH AGREEMENTS AND WAIVER.
Β
Section
10.21 Assignment. The
Loan, the Note, the Loan Documents and/or Lender's rights, title, obligations
and interests therein may be assigned by Lender and any of its successors
and assigns to any Person at any time in its discretion, in wholeΒ or
in part,
whether by
operation of law (pursuant to a merger or other successor in interest) or
otherwise. Upon such assignment, all references to Lender in this Agreement and
in any Loan Document shall be deemed to refer to such assignee or successor in
interest and such assignee or successor in interest shall thereafter stand in
the place of Lender. Borrower may not assign its rights, title,
Β
Β
93
Β
Β
interests
or obligations under this Agreement or under any of the Loan Documents except as
specifically provided in Sections 5.26.5 and 5.26.6 of this Agreement. In
connection with any assignment,
the new Lender shall provide notice to Borrower of the identity, address and
other
pertinent information pertaining to the new Lender.
Section
10.22 Set-Off. In
addition to any rights and remedies of Lender provided by this Loan Agreement
and by law, Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to Borrower, any
such notice being expressly waived by Borrower to the extent permitted by
applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by Borrower hereunder
(whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set-off and
appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or
special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other
credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or
indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or
owing by Lender or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of
Borrower. Lender agrees promptly to notify Borrower after any such set-off and
application made by Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall
not affect the validity of such set-off and application.
Section
10.23 Counterparts. This
Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts,
each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of
which shall
together constitute one and the same instrument.
